Bling & Bleakness
The glitter of a diamond is deceitful. It promises eternity, yet within its heart lies a darkness, a void. Diamonds are carved from the earth's veins, born of pressure and pain.

Perhaps, in the here end, diamonds are not a reflection of love, but a manifestation of human anguish.

A code of silence
In the shadowy underbelly of society, a sinister code of silence often prevails. This unwritten rule dictates that members must remain silent about criminal activity. Fear of consequences from fellow members, coupled with a sense of loyalty and the group, maintains this deafening silence. As a result, accountability is often obscured, allowing corruption to thrive.
Breaking this code can be incredibly perilous. Anyone who dare to speak out often face isolation, becoming outcasts themselves. This corrosive silence creates a climate of distrust where honesty is frowned upon.
Trapped Inside, Shut Outside
The feeling of being locked in, trapped inside, imprisoned within can be suffocating, claustrophobic, overwhelming. It's a prison, cage, box of your own making, thoughts, reality. The walls close in, press down, constrict, and the air grows thick, becomes stagnant, feels heavy. You yearn to escape, break free, get out, but the door remains sealed, bars hold firm, lock refuses to budge.
Then there's the opposite: being locked out, shut outside, denied entry. The world beckons, teases, calls from just beyond your reach. You see the warmth, light, life inside, but you're excluded, separated, left behind. It can feel like a cold, lonely, desolate existence, isolated, abandoned, forgotten.
Both states mirror, reflect, share a sense of helplessness, powerlessness, resignation. They are limitations, boundaries, walls that prevent us from fully experiencing, connecting, participating in the world around us.
