You wish to be within my breath

Without my arms around you

Even merely lovers cannot

Adjust to such a false truth

A mans vocation is what they are

What they do

So is the human bond, between two

What they are

What they do

The King never plays Prince

Nor the blacksmith, a horse

It’s a thing beyond nature

That one cannot force

Lovers are not like the moon they gaze upon

Or ocean sway

They are light, heat, the breeze

That either stays

Or fades away.
