Statue Poem by Jade Hymora

Statue



May the blood in my veins run cold

To prove to you the one I love

Just how cold I've grown

May my breathing cease

And my heart turn to stone

So that I might not feel the sting of your lies



Let my blood spill so you might see...

How your deciet has blackened it

Let not words pour from these lips

So that you may never know my true feelings



Let me stay forever frozen

In my perpetual heartbreak

Let me move not, breathe not...

Speak not one word

Against you the one I hold so dear



So that you might live in your eternal selfish bliss

Let me live not but as a statue

Monumenting a love darkened by lies
