Hiding within myself,
from the world,
I found the world I was hiding from,
and in it, I found myself,
hiding within myself,
from the world.
(Translated from Romanian) The poem uses the act of hiding as a metaphor for introspection and self-awareness.
The poem's cyclical nature suggests a deep, repetitive introspection. It speaks to the journey of self-discovery, where hiding from external forces paradoxically leads to uncovering one's inner self. The poem reflects an ongoing dialogue between isolation and self-revelation, tapping into themes of identity and solitude.
