“It was a strange feeling that turned me. Much like a feeling of nakedness. A feeling of shame. It was because of the knowledge i possessed.
Rather than expressing the feelings which had encased my mind, i regretfully kept them in. It wasn’t untill now that these feelings returned.
I stood naked in the face of knowledge. I knew nothing. I know nothing.
My judgement was not determined by the world and the stars, rather the love that carried me. The love that i treasured, the love that was mine.
So where was it now?
Where was this love that i had relied on for all these years?
Had it left me i would not be writing this to you.
Had it left me, i would have gone.
No, it did not leave, but instead it hid.
Hid for me to find, for me to dig and dig deeper and deeper until i was bare.
It hid for me to rip apart this world to find it.
But it left me hope.
I hung on to hope more tightly than i ever had.
Clenching within my fists every shattered dream and awful lie, every happy feeling and every simple song.
How long could i hold on.”
