Stone

Her heart

Was like a stone

Put on display

It was heavy

It was cold

But it was firm

He’d made them

All believe

She’d always been this way

The truth

It was always him

But she’d finally learned

Everyone

Was shocked

When she left that day

But it was

No surprise

When the tables turned

She finally left

When there was

Nothing positive to say

She was frightened

But she was tired

Of getting burned

She left

For she was weary

And felt all alone

She left

When her heart

Finally turned

To stone.
