When I have forgotten your name
I shall have become rich in intellect and wisdom.
I shall have ploughed fresh green fields of philosophy and be so
Spiritually complete that the earth can barely anchor me.

When I have forgotten your mouth
I shall have attained a perfection of human pleasure.
I shall live in an endless beauty of art and music with such
Ecstasies of eternal enjoyment that I resent sleep.

When I have forgotten your eyes
I shall be wealthier than any other on earth.
I shall own all the worlds and all the futures and distribute largesse in a
Torrent of charity which does not lessen me.

So please.
Please do not continue
Looking,
Speaking,
Being.

Or I may never again be as blessed
As I am now.
