Favorite Quote:
“the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.”


― Jack Kerouac, On the Road


she was a storm
with thunder and clouds and water streaming down at ten thousand miles an hour
and I was a drizzle
she never stopped to breathe or think
she just kept going like a mad man
always laughing
always talking
alive
I knew she was using me from the day we met
but using isn`t the right word
I don`t think she meant to hurt me
I think she was someone with so much love inside her, she just wanted to give it to share it with the whole world
She wanted to be a part of everything and never have a dull moment but to just burn bright like the stars she looked up at every night after the party was over and the high had passed
and even though I knew this
I stayed
because when she kissed you
and ran her hand down your side just the right way
you felt like you were the only person in the world to her
that you were the only one
and you were an infinite surging storm
together

but she needed to love more
and one wasn`t enough
she didn`t mean to hurt you
but she did

she was a storm and I was a drizzle
I`ll never be a storm
I`ll never be the best you ever had
but I`ll be the one who never left
the one who didn`t have much
but gave everything
and maybe one day that`ll be enough
