"There’s this condition called the rapture
of the deep. It’s when a deep-sea
diver spends too much time at
the bottom of the ocean and cannot
tell which way is up. You have always
been asleep in a different bed in the
same room. Kentucky felt like impossible
nostalgia. And I saw you looking back.
That’s it, I remember, I saw you looking
back because I was looking forward.
And my jaw was a clenched fist I
could not throw because the truth
hurts loudest when you toss it around
and the echo, the echo is what drives
girls like me mad with remembering."
Sabrina Benaim - "How to Unfold a Memory"
