Just Something Out of the Blue


I don't believe in the idea that no man is an island, but rather I believe in the exact opposite. Each and everyone of us is an island in our own selves. We build walls and create fortresses around our minds, our hearts and our overall being for protection. We tell lies to cover our weaknesses, we wear masks to patch up our flaws and we shut ourselves from others because we know that however much they understand us, it's still not enough.


However, amidst this thinking, I also do believe that because of this, we discover those select people who cares for us so much that they will bother breaking into the wall we've surrounded ourselves in--that they will search for us when we are drowning in our pool of lies, strip us off of our masks and still manage to look despite our flawed selves and accompany us in our own little world away from everybody else even though they couldn't understand a single bit of our thoughts.
