ablurofpenpaperandbongrips:
Speak not, lie hidden, and conceal the way you dream, the things you feel. Deep in your spirit let them rise akin to stars in crystal skies that set before the night is blurred: delight in them and speak no word. How can a heart expression find?

I feel at peace with my growing love for solitude....
