Nothing

Story of Nothing

By Cristina Iz

 

        Have you ever wanted to say something so bad but you couldn’t put it into words? Then it gets all caught in your throat and it hurts to swallow. Yea that’s how this story is, this is a story about nothing or a story about everything it could be love, lust, anger, hate, forgiveness, breaking the rules, making the rules,  s**t I guess it could be about anything , or like I said nothing.

       What is nothing but someone’s something. Like for example meeting someone on the train, for you it could be just another encounter you’re going to just forget for someone else it could be love at first sight. Think about it how did you meet the person you’re in love with? It was a nothing moment, a moment that meant nothing to anyone else, but for you it was the one moment in life you will always remember. The color lipstick she had on, the smell of his cologne, the weather I bet you remember every detail of that moment that to me means nothing to but it means everything to you. 

      There is just something within us that lets us know this moment of nothing, the smile to a stranger, or the fight to protect someone, is the moment that will mean something a moment you won’t forget but everyone else would. 

       Damn, if you think about you probably someone’s something without knowing. You remember in high school that girl in the back of the classroom that the teacher made you partners with, probably not but if you where her crush she remembers you. That moment of pure nothing to you was a unforgettable moment in her life. Then you end up meeting in a book store years later and she restores your memory of that nothing then it becomes a reason to create something, you go get a cup of joe , then BAM you in love and it started from a moment of nothing
