“You want their blood in your veins. And yours in theirs. You want one beating heart, one backbone, two souls, one body. Your love is desperate, but massive like the sea, unchanging as it heaves. It makes you crazy, stuffed full of energy, without any socially acceptable recourse for dealing with it.”

There’s an aspect of intense love that is…just…the words that you use to describe this love are terrible and off-putting, but they are the only way to adequately express them. Dali has a quote about loving someone so much you want to eat them – sometimes you so desperately want to hold on to somebody that you want to crush them. You don’t actually want to hurt them or do harm to them, but they are ways to describe just how much you need, want, desire somebody. There’s a lot of overlap in these horrible sounding things that actually describe a true, deep passionate love.
