“Life is not unlike cinema. Each scene has its own music, and the music is created for the scene, woven to it in ways we do not understand.

“I drop her on the cot and turn away and grab my hair and pull until it hurts. I want to pull all of it out. Every single piece. I want a pain I understand instead of the one I don’t. I want a pain that has a beginning and an end, not one that goes on forever and cuts all the way to the bone.”
