They started as children and grew to be friends
|
He with his sculptor's hands she with her needle
|
They went through some bitter times alone and together
|
They were lovers and friends, but friends more than
|
lovers
|
Sharing each other with their own private worlds
|
|
He knew that she needed him, he couldn't come
|
He needed her, but she could not answer his needs
|
|
He sculpted he form only both of them knew
|
He yearned to finish before she would leave him forever
|
But before he was finished, she disappeared
|
And seized with sadness, he crumbled the statue to bits
|
|
Form and friend, gone forever
|
Both crumbled down to memory
|
|
He knew that she needed him, he couldn't come
|
He needed her, but she could not answer his needs
|
