Analysis of Urgency



I need you to feel my heart say it

Its vibrating so fast my hands want to shake it free

But it's shouting your name because it needs you to know how perfect you are

That it can't live without you in its life

Or whenever we're threatened it wants to throw each curved ball at one hundred miles an hour back to you

It wants to hit you like winds of light and make noise so wondrous your eyes strain with understanding

Because love is urgent

It runs to catch up and mimic every stride you take because it wants to be the one there to catch you

This is what love is.

That's how I know I love you
