Did you think I would
carry you forevor like
a sack of coins-
never spent,
never lost?
This question, too,
has value, equal weight.
I spend my thoughts,
my life, my worry on
the price of wisdom.
When two people love,
like cypress trees standing
in the garden, truly belong
to no one but to please
the world; like stars
whose shine resembles
precious diamonds, yet
cost the dreamer nothing,
so must I remember
that the contents of
my emptied heart
were given freely.
