If all knowledge were one in your hands
And like God, on surface of earth, you stand.
Your days will be long and your nights will be cold.
If you had stayed where immortals worship - in heaven and sanity
Long would you have known there's just one truth in reality
The truth of eternal friendship:
Love is just a poet's fantasy.
If you had lost, in the impending hour, the knots which tie
Your heart irrevocably to a man;
If your eyes had ceased in the moment of truth their impending tears;
If you had seen forever in the passion of today:
A kiss would bite -
A hug will maim.
Love would be a lethal sting.
Friendship is passion!
