If I could impart unto you a mere portion
Of the greatness of true love
Then I have done what I set out to do.
If I could enteach unto you a mere lesson
On the grandness of the meaning of true love
Then I will have accomplished my goal.
If I could endear unto you
The sentimental emotion
Of the existence of love
Then I will have met
With my final destination.
if I have done all that I set out to do
In accomplishing my final goal
On the road to a destined place,
Then, a mere portion
Of the sentimental emotion that preceded me
Exists in grand greatness
Within an impartial teacher
Endeared by true love.
