from "The Propet"
by Kahili Gibran
Love
one another,
but make not a bond of love,
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls,
Fill each other's cup
but drink not from one cup,
Give one another of your bread
but eat not from the same loaf,
Sing and dance together and be joyous,
but let each other of you be alone,
Even as the string of a lute are alone
thought they quiver with the same music,
Give your heart,
but not into each other's keeping,
For only the hand of Life can contain your heart,
And stand together
yet not too near together,
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypess
grow not in each other's shadow.
