I’ve convinced everyone that I’m allergic to pen ink even though I’m not and I wish I could take it back but now I can’t
I lied for years about my skills and basically dumbed myself down so I could hide. I’d be haunted by the thought that the eyes of those I know would really see ME, and I’d be unable to express myself in a way that I can’t to people IRL.
While I feel horrible for lying, a world that only I know is a comfort that I cannot find this world.
