Like a Rock

Like a rock loved and adored Touched Watched Imagined Sculpted Carved into the most majestic sculpture A presence sought after Solid and strong The perfect figure The perfect rock Like a rock solid and strong Firm The weight of the world Like a rock Crushed into a million pieces Broken Nothing but dust Kicked into the curb Blown into the wind Into the world Into what seems like nowhere Like a rock Solid and strong Cold like stone Broken and crushed Turned into dust and blown away Into nowhere Obliterated Scattered into a million pieces Into nothing Like a rock Poof Nothing
