“His absence feels like losing a lung.”
Lily King, Heart the Lover

“But I’m not good at saying that I feel hurt or forgotten or rejected. There had been no room for that growing up. I’m more skilled at burying those emotions.”
Lily King, Heart the Lover

“I am so in love with him it is hard to take a full
breath, I write in the journal. His absence feels like losing a lung.”
Lily King, Heart the Lover

“I felt such a fresh longing for her at that moment that we might have parted only yesterday. The pain of losing something precious - be it earthly happiness or material wealth - can be forgotten over time. But our missed opportunities never leave us, and every time they come back to haunt us, we ache. Or perhaps what haunts us is that nagging thought that things might have turned out differently. Because without that thought, we would put it down to fate and accept it.”
Sabahattin Ali, Madonna in a Fur Coat, Madonna in a Fur Coat

“It's a shock when people remember what you remember.”
Lily King, Heart the Lover
