If we start throwing stones
Who will get hurt?

The concrete had no say
Still wet
As hearts were etched
Initialed
Left to cure
Beside the pawprints
Of a frightened kitten

The walls break
My heart is a stepping stone
It's swallowing the rain
Nightmare's obstacles
Faith's accident
See through clouds

Stone In This Heart

Dear Lord,
I do not ask
For charity
All I want 
Is clarity
Remove this
Stone from
This heart,
Because
My feet
Are made
Of clay
