The Stone Armour

Deep inside me, A little girl is standing, Inside my black stone heart. Freezing, lonely and looking for love. The love she was promised, The love she started this life with. Still she stands Still she looks Protected by this armour, That I built for her, That I built for us. 'The love is here!' I exclaim, 'Look around' 'Let it in!' The girl doesn't hear. She sits down, Puts her head on her knees. Still she sits If only she would look! She would see the love banging at the black door Desperate to get in
