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 thus groans      
and love lies cold as stone
