Quote by John Green
And now she was colder by the hour, more dead with every breath I took. I thought: That is the fear: I have lost something important, and I cannot find it, and I need it. It is fear like if someone lost his glasses and went to the glasses store and they told him the world run out of glasses and he would just have to do without.
Summary
This quote portrays a sense of desperation and fear that arises from the feeling of losing something crucial in one's life. The comparison made to losing a pair of glasses emphasizes the helplessness that comes with the fear of being unable to find a replacement. The sense of urgency and longing conveyed through the growing coldness and imminent death create a powerful image of despair and the need for something that feels irreplaceable.
