The Lesser Pygmalion

My fingers touch your face

Slide across without a trace

Water stains your cheek

Where real tears should leak

Your eyes remain cold

My efforts grow so old

Despite attempts

To reach your soul

Your lips don't respond

When mine are pressed to yours

How much can one take

How much more can I endure?

I shaped your whole existence

Breathed you into being

Each day I devoted

To shape this sacred thing

That stands between us

Not honed of stone and steel

But made of human flesh

Tangible touch, vivid feel

Please step down

From your pedestal

Drop your gown

Do the inevitable

Move to the living flame

Burning in that marble frame

Awake! Before I die

Prove that it's not a lie

I can make you love me

You belong to me, alone

After all, I made you mine

Sculpted only as my own

"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
