I believe there is more to what we say. Like there's not just one meaning. Hidden messages within texts and emotions being kept as secrets until one day we feel like the barriers may come down and we can finally share all of it. All of the messy feelings and tender thoughts. I can't help but think there is a bit of doubt and hesitation in all of us. We want to believe it's real...that this can be everything we wanted. But why?..why then, do we choose to sit idly by and keep our mouths shut from revealing those messy feelings if it meant it would set us free. We keep up this exterior so no one could hurt us, so we wouldn't be hurt if someone rejects us. And until these barriers fall into ashes... our emotions will still be kept as secrets, our hidden messages will soon become lost words, lost meaning.
