Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

And they made the secret pact
His knowledge would be tapped
The link was based on a respect
On their lives they would reflect
A perfect state of non-attachment
Was striven for and claimed as fact

As each mental bond was broken
Strength grew in the young man's heart
What began as love not passion
Had left a seed in his heart

Why look for the key in another ...
