Cold as Stone

words that lie        
and hearts that die        
turning life to dust        
where once was lust        
now's just bloody rust        
a mortal wound              
of love and desire        
curse your demon's fire        
we flew so much higher        
almost reaching the sun        
finding only a funeral pyre        
endings that burn        
stomachs that churn        
puking all that was given        
our lust thus driven        
and souls now riven        
with a knife of bone        
as heaven groans        
and love lies cold as stone
