I want to strip off all my layers and lay myself bare, to be unapologetically. I want the world I know to know me like I know myself-the good, the bad, and the vast spectrum in between. I want to liberate my soul, to bask in the wonder that is freeing oneself from the shackles of conformity. I envy the signature smile, the names that ring every bell. I yearn to stand out-I yearn to be somebody.
And yet, I want to stay right here, within my own harbour, and observe from a distance. I cherish the peace and comfort of my own hug, far removed from the cacophony that is the world around me.
So there I stay.
