Who Can Stand Your Essence Collaboration

Ethereal gypsy queen, reader of the stars
Astrological genius, seeing much in yonder crystal ball
Gifted with clairvoyance, and the gift of prophecy,
Women of my dreams, keeper of the cosmos truth,
Someone who trusts just like me, 
Who can stand in the shadow of your all-knowingness?
I dare to enter your tent, acutely aware of your gifts
And the possibility of a future with you. 
But alas, I am the king’s son, and it is blasphemy to believe.
You catch my eye, and I am entranced,
Ready to follow you to death, my princess. No doubt.
