Kingdom

And there is nothing more than this -

This laughter like sunlight,

This crown of thunder and thorns and flowers and steel

These hands - so many hands

all clasped in another with the unspoken promise

of never letting go.

I once read a story

where the main character fell out of love

And it felt like the sequel to a life I didn't want to read-

The problem was,

I ended up writing it.
