Flashback: 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.
