A Price
If, it is only once,
In this lifetime,
That I know you.
Then any price is
worth that knowledge.
If, it is only once,
That our eyes meet,
And trembling breath
Speak a word,
Master.
I would pay that price.
If, it is only once,
That our hearts touch,
Knowing that my place,
Is at your feet,
It will be branded
upon my soul.
If, it is only once,
That my body knows,
Your touch and my mind
Knows your bonds.
The remembrance will
Sustain me.
Only once is more
Than I could ever
Hope for.
Only once was
Paid for.
Only once in this lifetime.
