hurricanes of repressed feelings,
beautiful lightning storms of something new and brilliant.
We drift and we collide and we tear ourselves apart, each of us hoping to find a storm we want to live inside of forever.
A space for me to empty my brain of all the poems, letters, and half-finished stories that swirl around in my head all day.
