Gemstone Gloom
The shine of a diamond is deceitful. It promises unwavering strength, yet within its core lies a darkness, a emptiness. Diamonds are carved from the earth's veins, born of pressure and pain. Their beauty is a cruel manifestation of the despair that births their existence. We are drawn to their allure, yet they mirror our own inner darkness. Perhaps, in the end, diamonds are not a measure of love, but a expression of human despair.

The code of silence
In the shadowy underbelly of any organization, a chilling code of silence often prevails. This unwritten edict dictates that members are expected to remain silent about criminal activity. Fear of retribution from fellow members, coupled with a sense of loyalty to the group, upholds this deafening silence. As a result, justice is often suppressed, allowing corruption to flourish.
Breaking this code can be dangerously perilous. Individuals dare to speak out often face isolation, becoming targets themselves. This pervasive silence creates a climate of suspicion where honesty is here nonexistent.
Locked In, Locked Out
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.
