Invulnerable Heart
A heart of stone so gently cold
Never forgotten but neither told
Cries a man upon thus winters heart
With a decades time mere to pass
And a dove leading towards the stars
Upon this darkened sky of cherry blossoms
Leaving indents so grave near to scars
On this battered now broken pulse beater
Of a once rejoiced and mellow stone
Dreaming to drown within love
Containing the rhythms in his bone
