Just like that, the knife returns to my heart. It seems like too many people in my life are vying to be Donnelly’s number one thought, his number one concern, and I understand the yearning. He has this rare ability to make you feel like the greatest, most powerful version of yourself. Being around him amplifies all the pieces I love: the weird, unashamed, daring, happiest side of me. Being without him is just lonely.
