2021 – hiding behind my inner wall

Self-introspection can leave you vulnerable. I am in that state. A state I have been feeling since the beginning of 2021. I am experiencing an emotion whereby I wish to hibernate or simply vanish away from myself. Might sound strange! How can one hide from oneself? I have no clue.

Hence this year I will not self-reflect, I will simply let my subconscious speak its own words, to flow effortlessly onto the substrate, revealing some, concealing few. I feel these are writings on the inner wall of my Self which needs to surface and dissolve into nothingness. Leaving behind a gleam of hope.
