I'm Thinking of Ending Things

by Iain Reid

“Sometimes a thought is closer to truth, to reality, than an action. You can say anything, you can do anything, but you can’t fake a thought.”

I think what I want is for someone to know me. Really know me. Know me better than anyone else and maybe even me.

The most important things are perpetually overlooked. Until something like this. Then they are impossible to ignore.
