Utmost Secrets

Someone
........especially a woman I'm interested in........
recommends to me their favourite music/paintings/books/films

And I often feel a kind of “guilty pleasure”

They love certain artworks, because

something from the artworks resonates deeply with their inner world

The reason why they share their favourite artworks is

those works express
something about them
something they want others to know

Not everyone can articulate their inner self directly

But they can come very close to revealing it through the artworks they love

When someone recommends to me their favourite artworks,
I feel as if I’m witnessing their most hidden secrets
