Beware they that ask
For your love and rage at the same time
Love is one part of your story
Rage is one part of your story
They are roads to different destinations
That you will take at different times
They that ask you to combine them
Do so for their own means
They wish to become the story you tell
To simplify you
They that ask this do not mean you well
They have no wishes for you at all
They dream a dream for them
Cherish your love
Safeguard your rage
They are yours and yours alone
