An equivocal truth: Denial

 



You try so hard to be unaffected and you keep telling yourself it's nothing, but the more you do, the more you realize it does mean something. It means a lot actually to the point that you're ready to deny it every time it comes up. Quite an obvious defense mechanism, but lies do not become you. They grow into solid blocks that fervently lock you away and soon make it difficult for everybody else to know you. Or yourself, when you eventually live on your own lie.





La vie et le mensonge d'un prisonnier. (The life and lies of a prisoner.)
You can't let just one passive answer slip out as this will surely haunt you  or worse, backfire on your safest retreat. Paranoia.


Pour dire la vérité, denying is simply also stating the fact of its existence.
Your refusal to admit that there is something would just leave a dent on you somewhere, perhaps not now, but soon you'll realize.


D'ignorer, c'est à son insu crier pour il.
(To ignore it is to unwittingly scream for it.)
