Would you want love if it came at a price?
Would you embrace if the cost was high?
If it were served in a silver goblet,
Would it quench those parched and dry?
The elixir is rich and strong.
Don't drink too deeply in your thirst.
Sip it slow and savor it.
Don't make your last your first.
Would love be welcome if it brought pain?
Would you swing the door open wide?
If it brought gifts and promised more,
would it wipe away the tears you've cried?
Beware the stranger bearing gifts.
Nothing comes to us for free.
The choice we make can bare our soul.
Be careful who will see.
