I have been told to swallow The Bitter Pill
I refuse to take the medicine
Love is a state of grace
bestowed
A gift, a blessing
conferred upon me
that I humbly accept
and honor
with all of my being
Beknighted,
having sworn fealty,
I stand by my heart and soul
with all of my might
If by chance, I were forced to swallow
The Bitter Pill,
it would have no effect
for within me lies the antidote:
to love more
