Shards Quotes

“They parted and she never looked back. He never called her name. The busy doorway became quieter and quieter as he stood there, waiting for her plane to leave. He dried his face with the back of his hands and sniffed a harsh breath of air into his lungs. If he closed his eyes, he could still imagine her beside him. If he never opened them, she would always be there.”
― Chris Cummings, Shards

“He punched and thrashed around as he lay in his coffin and he felt his leg swinging in unnatural ways and his knuckles ached with the blood and bruises from trying to fight his way out.”
― Chris Cummings, Shards
