To my True Love

†

Listen to me now, Lethyn!—
I swear as the moon is new
I’ll give you one last chance
If you promise to be true.

I haven’t the least desire
To bind you to my breast
Or make you leap through fire
Or put you to the test.

You’re free to love or hate me—
To win life’s game or lose.
I’m waiting, dear, I’m waiting
To see which path you choose.
