The Hardened Stone

Go away and leave me alone You cannot carve the hardened stone So death has come deep down inside Among these four walls where I hide Comforts me and keeps all the pain From ever finding me again Keep on knocking on that wood door Run away then come back for more Why won't you believe what you heard Guess you wanted that special word Continue to pray and again Wait the day I've paid for my sins You could've had my heart one day But with my mind you want to play Go away and leave me alone You cannot carve the hardened stone

this is a great but sad poem i am your first comment on it (shocking) and i thought it was beautiful so many of us have felt that way like someone ripped our heart out and tossed it aroung just to replace it into our cheast as a "hardened stone" never to love the same again never to trust the way you once did. i totally got it. good write. =)
