Gordian

your rowboat next to mine,
we paddled on together,
and tied a rope between,
in case of stormy weather.

but now the storm is passed (for you)
and i am left behind.
but if i can catch up to you,
i hope that i will find...

...a rope tied to your prow
with the strongest knot of all:
romance, true Love, and chivalry ;)
to catch us when we fall.

yet i watch with growing terror
as your hands attack the knot;
but, why try to untie it,
when you can simply -cut-?
