stone-hard

fragile as crystal glass
pretending to be stone-hard.

how much did it mean to you

how much did it hurt you

how deep has your sorrow penetrated

why can't you come back to the surface

why would you keep diving

why ain't you resisting

how does it feel
to perceive your bones sinking

how does it taste
the salty flavor of your tears

how vast is the solitude
you surrendered to

how long did it take for you
to realize
you are going to be alone
forever?
