I pretend to be innocent, but my mind is anything but.

r/

To most people, I come off as quiet, polite, and maybe even a little shy. But if anyone could hear the things running through my mind…
Let’s just say, the thoughts I have during the day could never be said out loud. I imagine scenarios, flirt in my head, and replay certain moments way more than I probably should.
I keep it all bottled up behind a calm face and soft voice—but deep down, I crave things that would surprise the hell out of anyone who knows me.
Sometimes I wonder if anyone else around me is hiding the same kind of thoughts behind a smile.

    Yes the quiet ones have just learned to be quiet so they don’t get taken away. My head is a scary place. I forget sometimes and let it out and then i learn why I stay quite

    That’s ok as long as your thoughts aren’t of murdering or hurting those around you. If you are having thoughts like that or of self harm, you need to talk to someone, please.

    Other than that, you’re probably good. But get help if you think you need it.
