You and I are nothing.

Together the world does not recognize us.

And, let me tell you, it is wonderful to live like this:

We are free.

Free, I tell you!

Neither we float nor breathe, nor aspire. Why to worry about something if doing it will convert us on somebody and the others want us without being or existing.

Nobody wants to love us, they prefer us that way.

Nothing.

Like this.

No word: there is no adjective nor noun that defines us.

We are this and that, whatever we want to be and do.

If the maximum capacity of an elevator is "four people" and within it there are two in front of us and the box stops to pick up two more, they come in because they do not want to believe we exist.

We are gods.

And if we are gods (for universal balance) we are also counterpart.

It is only our decision.

"We are gods in a box" stands for "Somos Dioses dentro de una caja" in Spanish
