I know how to honour the course of true love.
If between you and me
There was a river,
I would have a swum across;
If there was a distance of mountains in my way
I would have walked across….
But this fortress of narrow-mindedness that you have built specially
for me,
With a roof of compromises overhead, coloured by rituals, with deceit as a floor, and decorated with magic-sounding words
This house of yours
Cannot contain me.
