Three stone statues are before me.

Beautiful in design, each his own representation.

The first one, I love his mind, so I touch his face.

I run my hand across what would be his hair.

... Remember all the times he made me laugh

Every time he taught me something I didn’t know.

I remember the moment I realized I loved him

Yet still acted like we were friends.

The next one I stand before and smile,

Run a finger down his chest..

He drives me wild

Gently intelligent

A bit caustic

But always gentle

with me.

Our brief moment an explosion

Of color

And time.

The third is my match

Like a piece in a puzzle

We simply ‘fit’

Everything I am

He understands.

Behind the three are two

Falling apart

One is worthless

Like the perfect set of breasts

On an 80 year old woman.

The other filthy

Like a sewer line

In an all boys school.

I touch one

And a piece falls to the earth.

I return my attention to the front three.

I kneel before the third

And apologize

For being born

To cause him angst.
