Perhaps, if I am fortunate, this room in which I am imprisoned will one day become a museum. Perhaps by the end of it all, a story will have been told - enough to make this suffering worth something. I am bound by an unreasonable degree of wishful thinking. I have failed countless times, and yet I do not know what failure is.
