Immortal

Lay me down on the cold grey stone

and grasp my love to feel less alone

my leaden soul brittles, splinters then breaks

beneath the weight of your heart that aches

 

Fuck amongst death and in its' place

we create a new life within this space

time does not stop, fused blood will run

to drip on the clouds of setting sun

From the cold grey stone to the clouds of setting sun - - - you just finshed the whole poem off so well.

different voice in the second stanza for me here, but i think it works still and two stanzas is about the right length on it.

i particularly like 'my leaden soul brittles, splinters then breaks' but it's a excellent piece.

good stuff
