Supernova

Supernova
Written by Kelly Ann Wilson

He burned through life
Like a supernova.

He went so hard
On his body,
On his mind,
On his spirit.

Kicking and screaming his way
Through the universe.

Leaving a blazing trail in his wake
Of what he scorched to the ground.

Red hot.
Closed fist.
No mercy.

As any trace of light
Gave way to the dark.

Sounds like...

a few people that I've known. I have a feeling that there is a specific personality that does just that; they go supernova!
All motor and no brakes. Good stuff, ~ Geez.
