Why you continue when not really sure
Perhaps this is the road to a cure
But at the end will it be gone

Prominent in front of your eyes
Majesty as moonlight catches a silhouette
Of something your vision had never met
The unbreakable releasing it's cries

Not but from the fury of God
Or the deepest of love, regret, and fears
Could summon eternal tears
And begin the crumbling of the stone facade

Across the sky the swirling rue had crept

Thus Wept the Statue

And begin the crumbling of the stone facade

Beautiful. If that's not a song, it'd be an amazing one.

Keep writing (or else/die),

Well, VS, I tell you the truth....this one gave me goosebumps....and that simply does not happen with me. It's imagery was spectacular.. and when a statue....who has been stone for so many years...begins to cry...that in it's self is enough to give anyone the chills...
Roses again, my friend...don't stop writing....they are coming in loud and clear..so is your heart!
Love and warm hugs in the snow it's snowing here today in Wyoming

Ahaha! what have we here? I do enjoy journeying through your poetic glade now and again, as I perchance across startling things such as this.

"Of something your vision had never met
The unbreakable releasing it's cries"

That was an image and a half.
Excellent.
