There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.

But nothing is said of the closeness between two people: how they grew in the shade of each other's presence. No one speaks of that exchange of gift and character --- the way a person took on and recognized in himself the smile of a lover. Individuals are seen only in the context of these swirling social tides.

Broken wall, dismembered room, this is my place. So, think before you judge me.

The simpler way to say it is that perspective matters.
