I wanna live! I wanna love! If my words were a color then I would claim full responsibility for the sky. There's this crazy little thing called love and it knows no bounds. Both the King and Queen say this. My heart and head are in an uproar because they are ruled by silence. I would throw up my arms, but they are shackled to my ghosts in the closet. I want to abstinent from worry. Worry that I want to hold the wrong hand that is right for me.Breathe that scent that lies only on a woman's neck.
Stop and listen.
There it is.
My heart beat. Just like yours. The very thing that pumps life into you is also in me.
Now.
Let me put a ring on it.
This is my anthem.
This is our anthem.
