{ love you inside & out }


remember the days when i was
so eager to satisfy you
now that i've flown away, i can see...
{ nelly furtado }

things are so different now --- different on the inside, different on the outside. i'm having thoughts i never dreamed of thinking. i'm having dreams i never knew were housed in my cavernous soul ---

i'm wearing things i never had courage to wear...i'm putting things on my body i never had confidence to dream of pulling off. i'm not even sure it's because i have more confidence than i did before --- if anything, i have less. i think it's more that i care less what other people see or think of me. perhaps that's a small street corner of the large and complex city that is Confidence. who knows.

my life should reflect what's inside --- right? i don't know. sometimes i think full disclosure isn't necessary. but i'm not sure i'd know --- there's never really been anyone who wanted to know everything.

is there something dangerous or uncomfortable about secrets?

Maybe not dangerous, but I think that the feeling that comes from revealing the secret and still being loved makes it worth telling.
xo!!

you're right - there might not be anything wrong with keeping some things to myself. but there might not be anything wrong with revealing something, too...
