Loss isn't an absence after all. It is a presence. A strong presence right next to me. I look at it. It doesn't look like anything, that's what is so strange. It just fits in.

More quotes by Jackie Kay
Sometimes you remember your life in photographs that were never taken.
Jackie Kay
When the love of your life dies, the problem is not that some part of you dies too, which it does, but that some part of you is still alive.
Jackie Kay
Nearly dying brings you closer to living. There's a thin border you feel yourself cross it, going back to the land of the living, going home. Perhaps, if you'd gone the other way, death would have been a different home.
Jackie Kay
