Analysis of Need
Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)
Come closer as if you need me
I know it's the other way round
I just say it sensitivly
Almost without any sound
Time will come for us to realize
How much "need" there's in our eyes
Time will come for compromise
When we'll say truth except of lies
Only then will we be whole
One chance for us to understand
This is the key to our goal
It could not be any more planned
We need and we have to admit
Not by words but with gestures we make
Maybe we'll use a first aid kit
But it will be always only for our sake
