A divided combination or a combined division
What's the difference between loving you and loving my ideals?
Is there a difference? Yes, but merely a subtle one,
you being so much of a soul yourself
with spiritual nourishment for your basic living
and your main sustenance for survival,
while of course ideals are always higher
than what anything can be in life on earth.
So am I then unfaithful to you for preferring my ideals,
or am I unfaithful to them for loving you?
A combination is the only answer.
I could love you both
and in the one embrace the other
and make my ideals find outlet into you
and find you one of my ideals.
That would, in fact, be the ideal love.
