Stone Heart (B&W Final Cut #40)
20 lines, 87 words
Free Verse
House Florent Image for G.o.T.


A tiny flattened beach stone
in the shape of a heart
once we found together
you and I
under a cloudless sky.

You painted it red
with a spray can, then
you drilled a hole so
a chain could pass through
while I stared unbelieving
since I would be leaving
in a day or two.

Now blaming the fate
and the writing on the wall
I touch the pendant
around my neck
as the memento
of a lovely day
that left a hole
in a stone heart.
