Enduring philosophies and favorite quotes

“I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something.”

Playlist pieces

How you always talk of catching me, but never open up your hands.
I’m not listening for the right words anymore.
..like the blue sky, right before the rain comes crashing through…
