Our hearts were arson & riot.

Empty spaces.

Mad for the Ocean. Mad like the Ocean.

The words like a bruise in the air.

You spit me out.

If you really want to see what matters most to me just take a short drive.

Without eye contact, we secretly thank the ocean for its offering but say something like “Rad trip, eh?…”
