Different Faces

I believe we all have different faces or masks to show to different people.

The first mask, we show to the world. This is where everything looks good on the outside. We pretend that our insecurities doesn't exist, that we aren't flawed.

And second face or mask, we show to our close friends and our family. We let those close to us see a little of ourselves. We show them when we get hurt. We let them in a little. We show them a glimpse of who we truly are. But only a glimpse. Because we're still afraid to show them who we really are.

Whilst the third mask, we never show to anyone.

This is the mask that is truly vulnerable. We even sometimes don't show it to ourselves. We lock it up and we pretend it doesn't exist. This is where are all the pain and sorrows are hidden. We are so scared to let people in and see how vulnerable we are. How sometimes our insecurities can cripple us. This one cross we bear alone. We don't share it to anyone, no matter how we love that person and no matter how much they mean to us.




Breaking Away

Sometimes we feel like we just have to get away from everything. It's not because you stop caring but because you're starting to care too much. 

It came to a point that's its no longer a healthy relationship. One would easily get mad and start to lashed out to the other person. And you can't tell him it's because of how you really feel. 

Little things would set you off. You get angry and bitter while he stay oblivious to what's happening. 

You start to confuse him. And it came to a point that its driving a wedge between the two of you. And still you can't tell him why. 

Then you start to feel guilty. And it's starts to eat you up. Others are getting affected in how you treat each other.

And still he has no clue on what going on. All he knows is you get mad at him for no reason. And it's totally unfair to him. 

So will a break from each other will solve the issue? Or will it make the distance permanent? 

We can only hope that everything will go back to how it use to be.
