Tethered to the Past Quotes

“I see her face. Her face is different, but I know it’s her. And she looks at me with the same adoration, the same desire, the same delight. I mean, I don’t see her literally in front of me. Her image, it just comes, like a photograph in my mind. Like a recollection. Like a memory I can’t remember having stored.
And I know her name. No-one says it in my dream and yet I just awoke with it the other day. I just knew it and it stayed in my brain. I tried to say it in my dream. I tried to talk to her, but I don’t have the conscious power to do that. It’s like I’m trapped, waiting until we take our last breath. And so, I just re-live our death each night. Our death. Mine and Avarrah’s.”

“They stood face to face, cheek to cheek, hearts beating in perfect rhythm.
'Find me,' he whispered.
'Find me,' she said, pulling him close. She took his weight and leaned backward—into the wind, into the void.
Their bodies fell like pebbles, their last breath exhaled moments before they crashed, like the waves, onto the rocks below
So ended the eighth life.”
