You can look at me.
You can touch me.
You can talk to me.
But you can't understand me.
I don't want to be anyways.
There are just some things I AM going to keep to myself,
so that no one knows.
Your knowledge of such matters will benefit
neither you,
nor me.
So there's no reason to try.
It's better this way.
Telling you will further complicate everything,
and I regret how much I've told you already.
Because now you think you understand everything,
when you really don't.
I don't fully understand myself,
so how could you?
I don't want your sympathy.
I don't want your advice.
I don't want your help.
So just fuckin drop it.
