Come with me on a covert mission
Under the cover of darkness
It is a critical operation
Whose failures could rip
A vortex in the fabric
Of two souls which collided
In a way which gives
Mere mortals cause for pause
Shall we be each others
Apprentice?
Eager to experience and learn?
Or stop for navel-grazing
And miss the vitality
Of this mission?
