“How do you want us to tune the lens and our eyes are filled with tears”
“Anna's eyes soften, and the stubborn tears begin to recede. The way she stands, the way she breathes, I know she wants to come closer. New knowledge fills up the air between us and neither of us wants to breathe it in.”
“...in our own hearts we trust for our salvation, in the men that surround us, in the sights that fill our eyes, in the sounds that fill our ears, and in the air that fill our lungs.”
“Come, let us drink the last raindrop tears from a narcissus cup and fill our souls with the songs of larks.”
“We all have our la-la-la song. The thing we do when the world isn't singing a nice tune to us. We sing our own nice tune to drown out ugly.”
“Tears filled Claire’s eyes but, as if they knew their place, didn’t leave.”
