You’re your own lock and someone else’s key, so make it last on those rare occasions that you’re really able to open up to someone. You’ll slip into this dreamlike thought process where you reconsider what you think is sensible and start putting into order what you thought was important in life. You’ll feel like you can say all those wordless thoughts that have been swimming around, making vocabulary and delivery and all those manners and forms you usually worry about completely null.

It’s like being able to sing music again. And sunless as it is, the next morning will seem a little less gray.
