Now and then my living Heart is
Hailed by Death, the Mind:
"Come to me, My Precious Love,
And see what you shall find,
A place that knows no pain, no grief.
You've loved and lost enough, My Love.
Come and taste relief."
"Dear Death, Dear Mind,
I've quotes for you,
Exactly two:
'Life is pain.'
'No pain, no gain.'"
"Come again?"
"Don't think I'd join you
If I could.
I've not yet tired of
Doing good.
In Death all levels are as one,
Or so they say.
I choose the rough path anyway."
