The Mad Side Emma Hiscock
Some days, the ink threatens to overflow and I struggle to restrain it, the fright of what deeper, darker secrets might be discovered. I know you hide that fear too, the dread of letting others witness the real side, The Mad Side, as some would say.

I live for these moments, craving to see streaks of madness in others, the way I sometimes catch them in myself.
