The problem isn't that I don't let people in
It's that I don't allow myself to get close
I don't give into how I truly feel
Because I don't want it to happen again
Defense.
I know it's a defense mechanism
And it makes me come across heartless
Uninterested.
I've been told to...
When that's a lie
I'm just scared
Isn't that what we do as humans?
We had an experience that hurt us
We learn from it
We prevent it from happening again
Fight or Flight.
I just need to learn to fight again
Let down the wall...
Let myself get close...

When Did My Skin Start To Burn? (Stray #1)
Former Title: Fault Beneath the Stars Stray Boys Series #1 | 🍉 They told me I wasn't in the Book. That in the grand design of the Divine, there was no ink wasted on people like me. It is hard to live as a gay man in a society that is blind, or worse, a society that chooses blindness in the name of faith. They preach love while teaching us to hate ourselves. Because of them, your skin burns even while you are still far from hell. To be gay is to be mocked, bruised, prayed over like a disease, and treated as something less than human. They hurt us for one simple reason: we are not written in their "Holy Book" the way they are. We were never named. Never claimed. Not even spared a footnote. And perhaps that is why it is so easy for them to erase us. I grew up in a house heavy with rosaries and sacred texts, a home that echoed with novenas every Thursday morning. I learned early how to kneel, how to bow my head, and -- most of all -- how to hide. I buried my truth so deep that even I forgot what it sounded like to speak it aloud. It is hard to be gay. Harder when you fall in love with someone just like you. "That's wrong." "That's a sin." "You're going to hell." They say it like a prayer. But can they really blame me? Because in that so-called "sin," I finally found myself. In that love they condemn, I learned how to breathe without fear. With him, my wings grew where shame once lived. With him, my skin finally stopped burning. Book Cover By: Souriah Arts

You're the One [Loser's Series #5]
When we were younger, I used to hate you. Your presence annoyed me. Your smug face used to irritate me. You're arrogant and nosy, and it's making me feel sick. You talk a lot, your words are like vex ringing in my ears. We're the pet peeves of each other, and we can't stand one another's company without arguing. Our friends used to say that we're the contrast of each other, that we're like the yin and yang. And now I still can't believe I'm gonna say it to you, but I think you're the one for me.Complete

You don't need to understand music. You just need to feel it. -Sarawat I look at my watch. It's 5:30 and I'm here in the couch waiting Tine to come out. While waiting him I'm thinking something. Like, I finally found someone that can make me happy. I don't care if he is a guy, if it makes you happy, then just go for it. I don't know why people care so much about what other people thinks of them. I mean, If you wanna make the world happy then start it by making yourself happy. If your happiness can make some people in disgust, then ignore them because you're just being yourself. I don't l get it why people take it a big deal or seriously if a guy fell inlove with a guy. It's love and there's nothing more special and important than love. Last night I thought I was bisexual, but the more I think of tine, the more I realize that yes. I'm gay. But only for him. I don't know how it happens but if you like a person, you don't like their genitials but the person they really are. Gender references does not define you. Your spirit does. I don't owe anyone an apology, if they know I'm gay, I don't care. I am what I am and that's not gonna change who I was. And if tine is ready, I am far more ready.Complete
TOO LATE TO SAY...
I don't even know how many times it was happened to me... For how many times that I wanted to confess yet I always get scared... This deceiver mind is so unfair! for it was never let me reveal the truth that I wanna tell... I can even think of myself as such a fool for hiding it, but ... SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'D GET HURT NOW, THAN TO LET THINGS HAPPEN WHEN YOU KNOW IN THE END WILL NEVER WORK OUT FINE... LOVELIFE hates me so much. If you feel the same, c'mon TAMBAY NA! =DComplete
