The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can’t be any large-scale revolution until there’s a personal revolution, on an individual level. It’s got to happen inside first.
“tell me what you’re really thinking.”
i stopped sleeping
with the window open
weeks ago.
every summer
buzzing silence
was enough to deaf me,
and force me to take back
whatever warm june emotion
i attributed to you.because
it was only
the moon in your eyes
that i loved,
and never you.

Literature… appeals to that secret depth of the human soul where the shadows of other worlds pass like the shadows of nameless and soundless ships.
