This isn't fair you know.
For you to so much control.
Of everything I feel.
To have the power
To make my heart
soar with pleasure
Or to leave my every fiber
in desolation.
I've ne'er been so joyous.
Nor so distraught.
A barely tangible taste of perfection
Followed by years of agony.
But I wouldn't once consider
Banishing seconds of paradise
Even to save myself what looks to be
An eternity of torture
For I cannot request the wondrous.
And expect no price.
I will traverse the hellish fires
Take my wounds with a grin
I know what waits at the end.
My love, my paramour, my everything
And we will fight side by side.
With our Paradise ahead.
