Collisions


Our lives are defined by collisions.

The confrontations that we face.

The ups and downs that evoke that fire in our veins which pushes us past the lines we've drawn for ourselves.

The most intense passion and the deepest sorrows.

So much emotion, the very stuff that makes up humanity.

It can all be taken away with one last supercharged second of fire coarsing around our hearts.

Then it's extinguished.

Then it's gone.

Our lives are defined by collisions.
