“ The most important things are the hardest things to say. 
They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them - 
words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head
 to no more than the living size when they’re brought out....
But it’s more than that, isn’t it? 
The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, 
like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. 
And you may make revelations that cost you dearly 
only to have people look at you in a funny way,
 not understanding what you’ve said at all, 
or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it.

That’s the worst, I think.

When the secret stays locked within
not for want of a teller..
but for want of an understanding ear."

~Stephen King, 
'Different Seasons'.
