I hope my death is quick and painless. I see no need to suffer more. I hope God's strategy is seamless, that I'm not asking what life's for. I know the answer deep inside me. I'm here to love and that is all. God's cursed me with that awful destiny. I have no choice but heed the call. For it is only those that answer to their Lords that have a shot at striking gold. I hope my death is entertaining, that I don't leave them bored and cold.
I ask my master for a lover, for it is there I find my wealth. But when I ask him for another, he says you first must love yourself. How does one look in the mirror and only see with child's eyes? I fear the truth is getting nearer: that my wild can't be disguised. And so I make my peace with loneliness and grief. I hold them close and gently weep. If ever I was uninspiring, it's your forgiveness that I seek.
