I often find myself to have memories that aren't mine. I know situations I have never experienced and I can feel the stormy breeze that has never touched me. I can hear the hawk's scream that has never reached my ear. I can see colours that don't exist.
But feeling deeply has its price. You can't always decide what you want to feel. It's like a wave coming from the sea, tearing away your feet that have just found firm ground again and carrying you out onto the wild ocean. You always gotta be cautious, you always must stay awake and aware! You can't make a mistake, for you must stay above the surface, you must keep swimming, or else you are going to drown. [And no one's gonna help you because they don't understand. They think you wanna drown.] - excerpt from a story i'll never write
