SECRETS.
Confession is always weakness. The grave soul keeps its own secrets, and takes its own punishment in silence.
- Dorothea Dix
Many times I choose to be straight honest because I hate lies and secrets. But at the same time, I didn't realise what honesty can actually cost me.
I feel vulnerable. It feels that my honesty can be used against me anytime.
But recently I realise, no matter how honest I wish to be, some truth should remain unheard. Because, secrets are meant to protect.
I love you and that's why I choose to burden myself in solemness.
I'm sorry that you can never know. But that's because I love you.
