You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.
Buddha


I see the world
from a looking glass-
a transparent box of sorts.
Unbeknownst to all,
I can see out,
but they can’t see in.

To the world,
I am cold and unfeeling.
But inside,
I am a writhing
ball of flames
with an everlasting burn.

My fire is contained,
but I will unleash it
when I want to.

Sometimes, I feel like people don't understand how I work, so I made this to express that.
