galatea.
whenever i find myself
placing you in words
so simple
so short
so few
in the only way i know possible,
i'm just drawing
the closest i can to you.
and each single time
i paint your image
in every tint
in every shade
in every hue
in the best way i know,
i'm just showing myself
how forever i'll be with you.
i'll turn you into artwork
with even myself a canvass
each single concept
each single stroke
each single line
if it is the only way
i truly can call you mine.
...
so this dude pygmalion couldn't find his true love anywhere and he ended up sculpting his dream girl as an ivory statue naming her galatea.
long story short, since he can't have is love any way else, he wound up making her by himself.
sound familiar?
