&quot;I realize that life is risks. It&#039;s acknowledging the past but looking forward. It&#039;s taking chances that we will make mistakes but believeing we all deserve to be forgiven.&quot; <br /> -The Dead Tossed Waves.

I give to you my heart
Thrashing with love and joy
Depicted of nothing too dark
Cradling your fears of coy

I want you to have it
Then tell me what you think
I want you forever
My heart will never shutter nor blink

Please accept it
Implant it in your chest
Together we will create one
Completely exaggerated at best

We'll beat to the same rhythm
And sing to the same song
We'll hum to the same melody
And bathe in the strongest set bond
