A secret is a strange thing.
Sometimes, some rare times,
a secret stays undiscovered because it is something too big for the mind to hold.
It is too strange,
too vast,
too terrifying to contemplate.

All of us have secrets in life.
We're keepers or kept from, players or played.
Secrets and cockroaches
-- that's what will be left at the end of it all.

-- Secrets.
The Dream Thieves, Maggie Stiefvater.

To feel someone else's lips pressed againts mine.
I've been wanting to feel that.
The emotions it carries,
the feelings it wants to relay.

You’re just playing it cool aren’t you?
But I can see the sadness in your eyes.
How you wanted to open up yourself to someone.
It’s just that you don’t trust people that much.
Maybe not even yourself.

I can see that you’re afraid of being betrayed.
So you put up your wall so high that only the ones who endured can enter.
You’re always on guard of the things that might HURT you.
Sometimes you seemed selfish to others but that’s just your way of protecting your heart.
Coz in the bitter end you know that NO ONE will do it for you but YOURSELF.

He mustered all the courage he can to confess to her.
And he finally told her.
He thought he would be judged, ridiculed and what not.
But little did he know,
She knew all along about this little secret he had.

"I had an affair with HIM" he said.

"I know" was her short reply.

and that was it, he knew he's been freed.
