Two Sticks of Wood

Two sticks of wood
Of weakest wood
Whose story bends to tell
The legend of a midnight romp
And on deaf ears it fell

On friendship here
A girl in love
Still unbeknownst to him
The legend of a midnight romp
On which the lights grow dim

Now minus one
He joins my room
And takes her bitter place
The legend of a midnight romp
And in the moon, his face


She’s thrown too hard
And there he lies
While on the floor, his art
The legend of a midnight romp
The story of my heart
