Perfect marble, silky cusp
Icy fingers, flaming blush;
Lustrous hands, something new
to show heaven's living proof
Quite enamoured just from you
so here is what I made of you.
This is my intense creation
The ideal lover, the faultless friend
whose pieces I put
back together again
Dainty cheeks,
ingratiating lips,
ready for a brand new life.
And suddenly I was revered
as a great illusionist.
Static statues, suspended
in the cold air of a museum exhibition.
Eyes that watch the little corners
of the room with inhibition,
enduring the toils of breathing, of sentience,
of carrying a pulse.
Of being.
Almost being.
My craftsmanship is excellent,
because I want to heal.
These people I have forged from stone
have finally made me feel.
But they're just fragments from my head,
figures now congealed.
They're just visions from my bed.
Why can't they be real?
