The world outside was silent and vast, but the noise in my head was deafening. Before I knew it, I was standing on your porch in the pitch black, my knuckles hovering over the wood. You opened the door, your face lit by the dim hall light, and your eyes met mine. No questions. You just reached out, took my hand, and pulled me into the warmth. You led me to the couch, your arm around my waist, and then you held me—really held me—as I sank into the cushions. In the dark, with your heartbeat against my ear, the static in my mind finally began to quiet.
