A Broken Heart

A stone lives inside,
a massive burden
pulling on the face of a lie;
empty eyes staring
at an empty world.
An urgent need, undefined,
lurks beneath the mind,
dragging.
Thoughts of hateful misery
feed the stone.
It grows and pulls,
stretching emotion
like an old rubber band.
Motion stops
like walking in water
and to love to hate
is to need the stone,
grasping for stability.
