Heart of Stone

I stand in that pit of endless despair

Heart turned to stone, unable to care

Anger had caused my insides to decay

Leaving me to wonder, how I fell in this snare.

Broken into pieces, shattered and torn

Reduced to a body, of mere flesh and bones

That feels no emotion, no joy, no sorrow

Can't love anymore, heart turned to stone.

Walking around, I laugh and joke

Another day passed, I make a stroke

Counting the days, I'm left to cope

With this heart of mine that turned to stone.

My mind forever, is frozen in time

At the point when, my heart was sublime

When nothing, I believed, could ruin my life

And hatred and cruelty would win every fight

Uptil then, I've been living in a fantasy

Now its time to turn this, face reality

Cage that monster, lose my inhumanity

Rise from my ashes, and become a legacy

Let love and peace, reign my heart once more

Stand up stronger, than ever before

Erase cruelty and hatred, from my very core

Turn my heart of stone, into a heart of gold.
