|| as i need you ||

before they speak

lips want

the meaning of the word

before they touch

fingers want

the movement of passion

before it beats

the heart

wants the body

before they walk

feet

want the path

a kindred destination

the destination

needs life

life needs

the faith of love

before becoming a tree

the seed needs

the earth, the sun, water

as i need

you

before i need

me.

(Sculptor : Philip Wakeham)
