Deafening Silence

I am teaching myself to live with paradox and oxymorons. I have realised that I can be both mindbogglingly happy and heart-brokenly sad at the same time. I can say two things that seem to contradict each other, but believe both of them to be true. It's difficult to describe though, even though I know it to be true.

"How are you?"

"I'm paradoxically brilliant

and terrible at the

 same time, thanks. You?"

"I'm fine."

*coughs and 

wanders off*
