They accuse me of being deceiving;
I am not deceiving, I compare myself to silk. It is they who are stupid and wrongly take gentleness and fairness for weakness, when they attempt to break me and can't.
I have always appeared to be fragile and delicate but the thing is, I am not fragile and I am not delicate. I am very gentle but I can show you that the gentle also possess a poison. I am just made of silk.
People mistake silk to be weak, but a silk handkerchief can protect the wearer from a gunshot.
Silk is a fine, delicate, soft, illuminating, beautiful substance.
It is versatile, flexible, and flowing. But you can never rip it!
If a man takes this tender silk and attempts to tear it, and cannot tear it, is he in his right mind to say "This silk is fake! I thought it was soft, I thought it was delicate, but look, I cannot even tear it" ?
Surely, this man is not in his right mind! The silk is not fake! This silk is 100% real. It's the man who is stupid!
Because instead of trying to enjoy the beautiful texture of the silk, he attempts to rip it apart.
There are many more kinds of predators in this world, so I want you to be made of silk.
You are silk.
Be velvet, black velvet.
