There are those who would have you believe power is what makes a man
Those who would have you believe wealth defines our person
To watch over a kingdom of our own making
Being the true sign of success or failure in ones life
I say we may all build our own kingdom
This kingdom needs not power or servants
It needs not wealth and extravagant things
This kingdom needs only love
Love being the bearer of all things good
Love bringing us our dreams, our goals
Delivering to us all the things wealth and power cannot
Love, being the vessel by which we find our kingdoms queen
A friend wrote to me once
She spoke to me, told me that heartbreak was a temporary thing
That it would be worth the risk, for the reward of an undeniable love
An unequivocal love.
And she was right, for I knew precisely of what she spoke
I knew the search for my kingdom had found fruit
I knew there would be no bounds to the happiness in my life from that day forward
But alas it seems I was mistaken
For only now am I realizing, that I have lost my queen
