the difficulty with remaining shrouded comes in direct opposition to the desire to be seen I won’t be defined by subjection to outsider’s projection of self, but still, I am human, and the pull to be understood lingers in a way they don’t tell you about in self-help books or charts that mark the planets and stars I wonder how loved ones will ever catch up, as I’ll forever live my life three hours behind
