i am carved out of stone.......

I am carved out of stone
they think….

They say what they please,
I have no heart
they think…..

They keep hurting me,
I don’t cry
they think….

They badger my soul,
I don’t bleed
they think….

They break my dreams,
I don’t yearn
they think….

They keep testing me,
I don’t break
they think….

‘Cos
I am carved out of stone
they think…..


I wrote this ode in one of those moments when yet again I was taken to be a person who is never affected by anything in life. To date I have no clue why it is thought that I can endure and sustain any hurt.

But yes, I get hurt too. And I do cry when that happens.

I have a heart too and in that heart, continues to live a little girl still waiting in the hope that someday she will be understood.

And maybe; till then I have to let them think I am carved out of stone ……...................
