More Than This

by Patrick Ness

maybe it’s just what happens when your final dying seconds turn into an eternity. The place of the worst season of your life, frozen forever, decaying without ever really dying.

The loneliness. In his accumulating exhaustion, the terrible loneliness of this place swamps him, just like the waves he drowned in.

And love and care have all kinds of different faces, and within them, there’s room for understanding, and for forgiveness, and for more.
