Eyes-like-mine Quote by Sheena Kamal
““A woman is entitled to her secrets. She should be able to hide them away for as long as she wants, without people constantly prying, trying to take a peek inside her head. But secrets are exhausting and that's the plain truth of the thing. The effort of keeping them locked away, shielding them from view…I'm only human, after all. I look away from him, though, because it is the only way I can do this.””
