Silence as projection.

Silence as rage. Holding the pain of rage in silence creates a kind of friction in one’s mind between thoughts. Becoming hot and stressed.

Hiding parts of oneself like a child who stays quiet. If I’m quiet, others won’t see me and they will begin to forget me. Then I will be alone. But being alone, while it is what I know, it is not what I want. I want to be seen, but on my terms. I want others to only see what I want to show them. Do they see those parts I hide? Are those parts of me revealed by their minds.

By being silent do I make them angry. By then being angry do they see that I am in fact angry.
