Field of Stone

She tries to remember 
His voice as she cries
Reflections of him
Can be seen in her eyes

Her memories betray her
With each passing day
Her smile, now broken
Has faded away

Her reason for living
Escapes her mind
She looks for a future
But none will she find

Her lover now sleeps
In a field of stone
As she's cursed to walk
This world alone
