Decisions


How and why -
People refrain from the pain
of deep
Self disclosure,

Either,

Out of incapacity,
or,
fear
of

Depth

Without closure:

The superficiality of the mundane -
the surface lovers
At
surface levels,
as,

Preservation

Prevention

Of over extension -
or exertion
of perception,

In self exploration
of

Another self…

Cellestial collisions

&

Decisions

Author's Note
... I was thinking about communication, in the context of a relationship.  

I think perhaps there is a sort of continuum, in this regard, where the deeper we get the greater the chaos/disorder, but the greater the potential for deeper levels of connection.

...  I have not been in a relationship for..?  I dont know how long.  Honestly, I have only really been in one relationship, where I felt like we just ventured into these sort of depths.

...  I have been told by multiple people that I am secretive/mysterious, even when I try to be transparent.  

I understand this.  Maybe it is just what we become.  or unique to me.

...  Nevertheless, I was thinking about this continuum.
