Loved you,

Like a solid stone,

Standing proud and deeply rooted,

Never wavering with rain and shine and pain,

I loved you like a stone.

Kissed your precious lips,

Drenched inside your savory smell,

Felt a heartbeat like a locomotive screaming,

I loved you like a stone.

Gripped your body next to mine,

Held you like an eternal flaming star,

Longed for more and more and more,

I loved you like a stone.

Lost my hold on you and you alone,

Heard your footsteps pounding, pounding,

The door came crashing, slamming, closing with no hope,

You no longer loved me like a stone.
