Stone Reflection
Carved from stone; the lover of despair
Gilded by a loss that left her dead
So alone in the arms she forged
Crafted from the pain that left her there
Enchantments gone, the disillusioned watch
All feeling left in graveyards on the sun
There’s no one left, each face has turned to dust
Her desire for delusion makes her run
The golem wakes, he moves to hear her speak
But she runs away and leaves him in the night
The golem fades, the distance breaks the spell
The seal upon the stone gives way to sight
Far away; the child of despair
All alone in life; the golems curse
She turned away after creating this
And now the stone that crumbles off gives way to thirst
Into rain; the fleshly golem walks
Quivering with knowledge and repair
Now he breathes through sight and soundly air
Until the love that he has found becomes despair
He carves the stone, crafts her face again
He gilds the one that left him far behind
Now alone, the golem sees himself
The mirror made of stone for all time
