"I feel as if something has been torn suddenly out of my life and left a terrible hole. I feel as if I couldn't be I - as if I must have changed into somebody else and couldn't get used to it.

"You'll get over it. It's the clichés that cause the trouble. To lose someone you love is to alter your life forever. You don't get over it because it is the person you loved.

This hole in my heart is in the shape of you, and no one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?"

"We sat like that for a long while, and when we stood up, all my sad things were in boxes, and Beck was my father."
