"I have a long list of things that I want to say to her, like... like how I can tell that she's a lonely person even if other people can't. Cuz. ...cuz I know what it feels like, to be lost, and lonely, and invisible."

And I couldn't see the type of man that I want to be versus the type of man I actually am. And i know that Im doing it but Im incapable of doing what needs to be done. I'm like Pinocchio. I'm a wooden boy. Not a real boy. And that kills me.」

"To Whom It May Concern, I am a ghost."
