Retreat ‘12

I’m not one to confront. And I just realized it’s because I deal very poorly with my emotions. And my fastest (And what I consider the easiest) escape route from having to face them is simply by not doing so. By ignoring them, by persistently forcing myself to become indifferent, although I clearly know otherwise. By creating a thick callous around my soul that entraps all that is pure; truth. 

I’m not so tough without that callous. Why would I allow someone to see me not so tough? Moreso than allow, why would I want someone to see me in that state of vulnerability, and what qualifies them to have the right to?

To be briefly put, this is why I am always “alright.”
