Passport to eternity
Let me die with thoughts of love of you
as passport to eternity across the river of mortality,
and never let me leave that passport or forget it
but maintain it always closest to my heart
as evidence that I at least got something out of life
that wasn't only foolishness.
Thus let me keep it for my only medicine
against all evils, dark moods and obsessions
and my only trustworthy insurance against losses,
for if only I have you I know I have the universe,
since all there ever was worth having,
everybody knows, is love.
