tears of glass

A statue of stone

cannot cry

as I a mortal

with tears of glass

that shatter and break

when they fall

 

My love

with his heart of stone

never cries

he wonders why

the glass has shattered

that he steps on

with bloody feet

this day that we meet

 

The gods must breath life into him

this statue without reason

so he will understand my pain

and return to me again
