i do wish to have and own this great gem

i wish to attend to each of its commands

i wish to embrace its needs and offer sacrifices it requires

i wish to be full of its content and direct all my affairs through its hands

i wish to promote its products and sell them for free on the world market

i wish to enhance its beauty in me and radiate its glamour in all of me and beyond

i wish to remove doubts of its potency from minds seemingly hurt by their usage of its perfume

i wish to give it full control to rule your mind and mine

i wish to define its limitless boundaries across land, sea and air

BUT

i can only wish for

its too painful

too daring

too unreliable

too foolish

too wise

to submit to the dictates of love

for LOVE is as strong as DEATH.
