| “ | I wonder when it started... the drifting... It's like my mind and body have come apart, little by little... Whenever something sad... or painful... happens... it's like there's another me who watches it... like it's happening to someone else thinking... "that's not me." It's okay. I can live like that. I'll lock my heart away deeper... if I do that... I won't have to feel pain outside or inside... or the fear... I won't have to feel anything at all. | „ |
