150. An opening
How do you want our relationship?
Sleeping together or just neutral friendship?
Whatever you wish, I will grant it
with no reservation, as far as I can.
If you still are a virgin, let's keep you that way,
if that is your desire - I will never trespass you.
If you want children - let's postpone that question until we get started.
Of course, you'll prefer your vocation and work,
which, however, does never exclude love but rather demands it,
like I have my duties and hopeless condition of workoholism.
We are flexible both and can compromise infinitely,
since that is one of love's many miracles:
suddenly impossibilities turn into practical feasibleness,
all doors open, all locks are unlocked, and the only thing left
is an endlessness of opportunities and possibilities.
