"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

Drawn To You






Connected 
And
Drawn 
To you 

Like…

A lyric to a tune
Needle to a vein
Comfort to pain 
Grace to the fallen
Stars to the night
Anxiety to need
Runner to the road
Thief to the night
Lovers to a bed
Flowers to the sun
Water to the well

Connected
And
Drawn
To you
