Take It True

Take it true, take it true,
I'm a star
to you.
Woe unto the sailor who
misaligns the starboard line
with the star;
wreck he be against the rocks
hidden undersea.
Woe I say unto you too
who misturned your hearts to mine;
wreck you be against the rocks
and the rocks will laugh
at you
as you did
at me.
