the tragedy of the human condition

i know this is gonna make no sense, but here goes:

sometimes i feel like i have these two sides of me that are at almost opposite ends of the spectrum. and i feel like i can’t project them both because they will seem like contradictions. but everything is a contradiction and you can’t simplify the complexity of who you are. you can’t wrap someone up into a neat box and define him. but it seems like people are only open to things that are definable—easy to digest. and when i desperately want to be understood i wrap myself up into a neat box. it doesnt matter which box. just one that can be digested.

one day when im older i’ll explain this better.
