Things I didn’t know I loved

Graphic by Bruna Costa

I didn’t know I loved speed. Forbidden RPMs and MPHs! I loved how it sounded in the air and the way things moved faster than Sainte Claire, breaking laws while feeling free, how speed could kill me, I didn’t know I loved the ground, how speed could be there and in the air. Speed. The laws of gravity. Quantum physics, the air I breathe. Speed. The need for that feeling of having lost control. The power of the control being mine. Speed. The motion that continues to move through barriers and walls, the inertia of it all, as if I were about to fall! Speed. Spinning around in my head. The fear of it I loved instead.
