Imagine emotions wearing clothes. Now people are just conscious to take them off because they think they might look ugly.
Writers then just choose to come emotionally naked.
Everytime a writer gives that tiniest detail about how the mole on his lover's neck makes him go weak in his knees, the reader gives that crooked smile.
Everytime a writer lets the reader touch his wound, the reader goes aah mine ached the same!
Writers are just common people trying to reinstate, that our emotions, share the same skin!
