I prefer the darkness


This showed up as a memory on my Facebook page today. This seems to be a recurrent theme.

I only make love in the dark
Not so my lover can't see me
But so he can't see inside me
My mind, my heart, my soul laid bare
That's just too much to handle
I never discuss personal matters with people I care about
It's easier to speak with strangers
Than to share something with someone I love
I can't sing in front of an audience
Write my feelings on paper
Or express my innermost thoughts
I don't mind people staring
Just as long as they don't recognize me
Just as long as they can't see
The true person buried deep within me

If you don't show the true person buried deep within then aren't you deceiving the person who wants to see? And you are thereby perpetuating the hurt.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

You have to find the one you can trust...

The funny, weird, whatever you want go call it, about me is that I'm actually an open book. I have very few secrets. If I'm not telling someone about what's going on in my life, I'm writing about it. I mean, I share with the world that I have an eating disorder, and many people never admit to that. Oddly, no matter how much I share or how much I uncover, there always seems to be a new layer or discovery. I feel like no one knows me because I feel like I don't know myself.
