hurricane

like a tidal wave it rushed up and over the edge
it came pouring out
spreading down the sidewalk
of this little home
a crack in the core
a vicious wind
and it all fell down
it crumbled apart
she crumbled apart
held by masking tape and honey
a makeshift heart
it held no more
she held no more
it all fell down
like a volcano she billows,
she explodes
the raw human finally appears
it shows
her ugliest parts
wounded, hurt, broken,
exposed
she held no more

one great quote...

"whenever i get gloomy with the state of the world, i think of the arrivals gate at heathrow airport. general opinion makes out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, i don't see that. seems to me that love is everywhere. often it's not articularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there. fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. when the planes hit the twin towers, i have reason to believe that none of the calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge, they were all messages of love. if you look for it, i've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around." -Love Actually
