By the gods! I beg you to dare not hearken The saccharine ministrations, Of fraudulent friends And transient swains. For, I know the blissful seduction Brought about by gaudy promises And irresistible fulfillment. Yet, the pull of such pleasures Do not remain ambrosial for life. If truth be told, authentic love Does not arrive without tribulation-- And the rarest devotion is what You truly deserve. "The Love You Deserve" **dedicated to a friend.
