Loss for words

"I can never say waht I want to say," continued Naoko. "It's been like this for a while now. I try to say something, but all I get are the wrong words - the wrong words or the exact opposit words from what I mean. I try to correct myself, and that only makes it worse. I lose track of what I was trying to say to being with. It's like I'm split into two and playing tag with myself. One half is chasing the other half around this big, fat post. The other me has the rights words, but this me can't catch her."

-Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
