They’re your neighbours, workmates, family and best friends. They hide and they lie, they use and abuse, they’re not bad people, they’re just sick, but they seek no pity. It’s like a pain that needs to be numbed, killed, a hole in the heart, a void of mammoth proportions. We’re the same species, and on the outside we all seem so similar, but really, we’re so individually different that we’re like snowflakes; an imprint of altered states. This is what makes connection so powerful, we come together as two and leave as one.
