I Can’t Love You With a Heart Made of Stone

I can’t love you with a heart made of stone
each walk a deepening step in the mud
feet anchored like roots steadfast to the ground

I can’t love you with a heart made of stone
head pulled under the waves
body sinking in the heart-staining torrent
unable to breathe unable to live

I can’t love you with a heart made of stone
heavy shackled nightmares waking me from sleep
chained mind barricaded from dreams

I can't love you with a heart made of stone
a crumbling statue disguised as a human
recesses of arteries clogged with pebbles
oceans of blood dirtied by desires
