How the valleywhen you first see it—the small roads backto your youth—is so painfully pretty at first,then, after a month of black coffee, it’s justanother place your bullish brain exists, botheredby itself and how hurtful human life can be.Isn’t that how it is?

I fear that if I tell you whatyou mean to me, you might betempted to use it against me.So I keep it a secret. Betweenmyself and the Keeper of secrets.As I take comfort in my prayersfor you, that you'll never know.There's a madman who cares foryou, more than you'll ever know.
