One time I was in love my heart almost crashed, it was out of control, I had bad palpitations the whole day and almost fainted. It lasted for weeks. Butterflies and aching groin. I had to pass some tests and got wires attached to my chest. There was nothing wrong with my heart.
But I know deep down that’s not true.
My heart is black and a bottomless pit.
The Heart is a lonely hunter with only one desire! To find some lasting comfort in the arms of anothers fire…driven by a desperate hunger to the arms of a neon light, the heart is a lonely hunter when there’s no sign of love in sight!
Carson McCullers, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter
You can’t save everyone, my beloved… and I know that breaks your heart… but some people don’t have a rock bottom, just a vast unending emptiness that no amount of love could ever fill.
