287. Best Kept Secret
We cannot control what we feel,
But we certainly can control what we do,
I wish I could tell you this,
For if I appear to take you for granted,
If I appear unaffected by your kindness,
It is only because some feelings
Are best kept secret.
And some friendship are best
Kept as friendships.
wa min Allah at-taufiq,
And may God bless
All friends true.

Kept as friendships.

All friends true.

(Extracted from 'i.alone.exist.in.a.world.of.mirrors.'). Two Ramadans ago, I wrote this ominous prose. Now I know that some secrets have expiry dates and some friendships are not meant to last. And while I would like to think that I know myself pretty well, history has proven otherwise, time and time again!

Really, it is sometimes very good to be very wrong.
