Answer:

Paradox is the literary device used in the sentence above.

Explanation:

The term "paradox" means "contrary to expectations, existing belief". It is a statement which appears to be a contradiction, but when investigated may be proved to be true. In this case the contradiction has to do with the fact that the speaker asks the addressee not be too long but, at the same time, he/she promises to wait for him/her all his/her life. Waiting for someone all your life will be long for sure. That's the contradiction.

Compare romeo's love for rosaline with romeo's love for juliet
iragen [17]
The story of romeo and juliet is a famous love story everybody knows that romeo loved juliet but lesser known romeo loved rosaline first even tho he had never expressed so directly. his love for her was born from the basic human instinct to want what we cant have, think of it like the nerd in love with the head cheerleader but she doesnt know he exists.
