I am my own person.

Logical, reasonable;

A realist.

-x-

Holder of Solomon's soul?

I am no King of Israel.

-x-

Demons and angels?

Illusions, magic tricks;

Nonsense.

Just let me believe.

-x-

Books, magic, and herbal tea.

Memories.

-x-

We aren't the same.

Oh, but we are.

In what sense?

-x-

I already know the answers.

-x-

Like him, I am human.

Like him, I will die.

And just like him

.

I will leave them all over again.
