She was a concrete angel In a darkened valley And he, was the freezing rain Seeping into her smallest pores Before freezing, expanding Breaking her at the seems Bits of stone, falling away Shattering at her feet, Rolling deeper into the valley She watched them fall, Saddened by their decent Continuously eroded away As he poured over her Never ceasing, never warming She shrinks into her stone tomb Encased in the safety of her angel shell Away from the freezing cold His constant pitter patter Raindrops echoing around her Slowly, slowly, it becomes comforting Slowly, slowly, he begins to feel her warmth Slowly, slowly, the stone chips away Slowly, slowly, they are exposed to eachother For the first time, she sees the sunlight Beyond her stone tomb But he? he never warmed And she? She was still left out in the cold Remembering the safety of her concrete shell And the constant sound of the pitter patter From before, when she thought he would warm
Stone can't warm the rain, nor can it resist erosion.
