Best Heart Of Stone Poems


Heart of Stone

A time may come, when heart, which is said to be a soft piece of flesh, turns to a stone. A stone beating in your chest doesn’t just free one but opens a shell with magnanimous appealing for solidarity from world. While a smile is wore on the pale face and sound of giggles made back and forth, loud enough, the sound is most relatable to a laughter, but , void of life and energy. In short the sinking holes under eyes which must had ‘v some time given way to a river and the crow lines, gaping emptiness of soul inside this rusting body explicitly trying to define itself in that lifeless forced laughter, but see, a smile and a puff of powder hides everything and frees the mind from the uncomfortable conversations one always want to avoid. So then, smile and wave, sit with a stone in your chest, and be very content with it, because a stone doesn’t feel, nor does it break. Here it is then, free from the conventionality and space in which you breathe, which pledges your personality though the luxuries and beauty on name of blessings, still be grateful on them and fly off from all the possible uncertainties, raging inner self. Then with time, slowly, this nourishment of terror leaves, but with a gift, a heart of stone.                       HN

A Heart of Stone For a Heart of Flesh

Infinite hearts of infinite loves
Sent to earth on wings of diligent doves

Infinite wisdom with infinite smiles
Sent to earth for her turbulent trials

Infinite eyes through infinite stars
Sent to earth to look at her scars

Let your heart of stone crumble in His presence
That we may abide in love within our penance

Let Him give you a true heart of flesh
That we may melt our sins and refresh

It has been said that a heart of stone
Shall never wander but stand alone

It has been said that a heart of flesh
Shall willingly wander and always mesh

Let Him come inside your hurting heart
That we may have joy and a fresh new start.

The Once Heart of Stone

Find mine heart of stone
On thy pedestal o' glass
For if it weigh more
Shall then shatter the mass

Mine heart of stone
Hath weighed me down so
When you came about
Lightly it became to know

That stone became a jewel
Crafted by your grace
And the jewel became diamond
Just by the smile on your face

So be it by your charm
Or by thine eyes
You awakened my heart
Be it awakened, realize

That you as an angel
Gaveith me a key
To which opened a stone
And set a diamond free

So be it known
Now to diamond from stone
This heart will love thee
Because you set it free

Eyes of Fire and Heart of Stone

I see pain in their eyes.
I hear sorrow in their cries.
Inside I break and cry alone,
with my eyes of fire and heart of stone.

No matter how much pain I feel
I am sure that I will always deal
the way I know..alone
with my eyes of fire and heart of stone.

Others may not know the fear.
They know just what they see or hear.
I come off cruel and cold.
Inside I'm not...I'm just not bold.

I have to thank my mother
for the love she's never shown
The one thing that she did give me...
her eyes of fire and heart of stone.

Premium Member A Heart of Stone

Like gold gilt on a pagan idol;
under the bling lies a heart of stone.
For you abruptly abandoned me;
though you swore, I'd never be alone.

All of my hopes and dreams died within
the periphery of your disdain.
And wounded by your lies and deceit;
I struggled to justify my pain.

You had me believe in our future,
but that was merely part of your plan.
For reneging on promises made;
you morphed into a shell of a man.

Love was reduced to mere memories
after passion's flame flickered out.
And depression devastated me;
when I learned what you were all about.

Heart of Stone

There was a woman serial killer who had a heart of stone.
She was the worst person who her victims had ever known.
She killed her three husbands and seven kids.
It gives goosebumps to think about what she did.
This woman was very evil and sick.
She killed her victims with arsenic.
It was the 19th Century and people thought that women serial killers couldn't exist.
Every time she remarried, her husband became the next victim on her list.
Killing children is the worst thing that a person can do.
This evil woman was finally brought to justice in 1872.
After an autopsy was performed, she was convicted and sent to jail.
When she died six years later, this Psychopath went straight to Hell.
She died in May of 1878 at the age of fifty-four.
People were glad that she wasn't around anymore.

(This is a true story about Lydia Sherman who died 136 years ago today.)

Heart of Stone

Its round with a curve and just a nerve
so hard to penetrate and conquer 
You will always hit and run
But if you are caught and woven there
You will know that
Doors hard to break into
Are also hard to break through 
Just like
This heart that loves you tight

Premium Member Heart of Stone- Wake Up My Heart

I was used and abused
my heart was trampled on.
So as a defense mechanism,
It became cold as ice,
and hard as a rock.
I didn't allow love to get near it,
that was until you came,
and caught me off guard. 
You were relentless in your
pursuit of me, I had no choice,
but to surrender to your love.
You made my icy heart melt,
my heart of stone became flesh.
You know what you did my love?
you WOKE UP MY HEART.

A Statue Is My Heart of Stone

Regally stunning, the way she stands there, hair dancing on a windless day.
She is smiling, and I turn and look behind me, to see the object of her desire.
Is it me that she wants, with those far-away eyes, so much in need of love?
Everyday I come to visit, and tell her of my yearning, of my deepest desires.
I'm not sure, but maybe she feels the same way, by that sweetest of smiles.
Sometimes cloudy skies, bring the tears that stain her face, stinging my heart.
Then as always, the sunshine breaks through, to dry up any trace of her sorrow.
So lovely she waits, like a picture in a book, the way she holds her arms for me.
Even the birds want to be near her, for she is always there, to hear their songs.
I know our meeting, was but the stroke of fate, the way we ran into each other.
And if the legends are true, and I kiss those marbled lips, she will love me too!

Heart of Stone

Some time ago I met a man
That lived in an ancient land 
He resided in a castle. 
Away from everyone, 
That could turn his heart into stone.

Some say he was unsociable,
Others that he was lone.
Just because he lived all alone.

He had his heart broken so many times,
By those he loved the most.
But the truth is,
He was just a man,
protecting his heart,
from turning into stone.

Heart of Stone

Was it really all that long ago
when we stood before the crowd
Vowing our love to each other aloud?
Ambitions and vows together don't always go
I'm sure you thought that I would know
So here am I, head bare and bowed.

Perhaps it was just an innocent faze.
I thought you would be happy if we were rich,
Instead I pushed you deeper into that ditch
I didn't emerge to you from that dark, dark haze...
Or was it the middle of an unsolvable maze?
Entangled now, in my created nitch.

I sometimes think of the life we could have known
But like you, I'm left with a HEART OF STONE.

Heart of Stone

a life lived
a glass half full
oh, how I've fallen
oh, how despicable
once a butterlfy
now a hermit
I'm left wondering,
"was it worth it?"
the question with no answer
from anyone but myself
how does one measure
the wealth of one's self?
is it the connections we've made?
the innocence we've lost?
the things which we own?
what does a good life cost?
will we know when we're gone
if we made the right choices?
or will we still suffer
under rule of our own voices?
will god judge us?
or anubis weigh our hearts?
will we be cast to hell?
a heart of stone, a last remorse

Heart of Stone

I have a heart of stone
I like you but leave me alone
oh boy,boy,boy
I mite be rite for you
now prove that to be rite
I mite just end up loving you
you want the sweet and happy days
you wanna crack my heart
and push the stones away
you wanna heal me up
and pave my wings with gold
cus my heart is very cold
you say im the star
you wanna pull from the sky
the season for love
and thats the reason why
you want the sweet and happy days
you wanna crack my heart
and push the stones away
you wanna heal me up
and pave my wings with gold
cus my heart is very cold

Heart of Stone

The Days Were Very Long
And the Nights Were Even Longer
But Slowly Through it All
I Felt Myself Grow Stronger

I Am No Longer a Little Girl
With Fantasies, Hopes and Dreams
Somehow Life's Painful Trials
Have Strengthened Me, or So it Seems

Whatever Comes Now I Am Ready
There Will Be No Backing down
So Hurt Me All You Can
My Heart Is More than Sound

The Hurt and Pain and Agony
Have Turned My Heart to Stone
I Have No Love to Give Now
So Please Go Away...Leave Me Alone

Heart of Stone

In the land of the cursed you will be the king of fools,
That is all that you deserve - outrage and stones will be your jewels.
And they laugh and spit on you,
But you smile and wave them still,
There is nothing I will do – 
A disgrace you make me feel!
That’s because my heart of stone will not tremble when you cry,
Has no pity, has no hope – 
It won’t brake the day you die.
But I know you feel the same,
There’s a rock you got inside – 
Feels no passion, feels no pain, - 
That heart of stone you will not hide.

In a black black day,
When God won’t be home,
He won’t hear you pray,
He will leave all alone,
There’s no mercy, only hate,
There’s no love for heart of stone.

Out of your stupid kingdom you have drive me away,
Thou I had a wisdom, I wouldn’t beg you to stay,
And I’m standing out of iron gates,
And the rain is falling down,
And I shouting out my rights to say,
But still look like an idiot clown.
Out of highest tower you’re looking down
With no sorrow in empty eyes,
You watch a slave that I’ve become – 
It makes you hypnotize…
Out of iron gates I’m standing all alone,
And I’m asking for you to help,
But I always forget that to heart of stone
There no such words to make it melt.

And this wicked life has made us fake and cruel,
But still never realize all those stupid actions we do.
I was standing and shouting right by your door,
By your house of fine grey brick,
But I knew, oh I knew that the feelings I show
Only going to make you sick.
But you’ve opened the door and you let me come in – 
Thou I thought you will do never,
And from now on our dead hearts of stone
Will be not beating together
