I wanted you to understand me. 

And, guess what, 

You understood that you can play along with me!

But not for too long! 

Ardelia said, “Don’t trust anyone’s decency. 

It’s almost fake. 

It’s not always about you, but entirely about them!

Never show your truer self to others. 

People wait to strike you at your lowest. 

They try to read you, 

So that they can turn over the page,

They want to write your story, build your characters,

Don’t forget that you are the sole author of your book, the layman of the layout, 

Never tell your part of the story for cheaper interpretations. 

They want to triumph over you, as it satiates their desire.

Faking out to fool people for fake reasons in this fake world

is the ultimate agony for an authentic soul in the sedimentary repercussions. 

We give a fake smile with fake gestures. 

Are there any feelings truer?! 

No, Jonas, you are wrong.

There aren’t any! 

You are a machine, robotic. 

All of your emotions should be discarded to survive. 

For survival at the lowest phase of humanity! 

All humanitarian acts are based on barbaric agendas.

And all barbarisms are in their truest, wildest form.

Raw emotions are hard to define as you unlearn to validate them.

Why don’t you believe in people anymore?! – Cause, I don’t want anyone to exploit my reason. How’s that like?!

You were a beautiful chain whom I binded myself with, You were a self-built cage where I imprisoned myself, You

Audacity

Oh, the audacity of leaving the person you love! To walk away with steady feet, While their heart still trembles
