Black heartstone
Marked by abrasion
Dipped in soured waters
By suffering chastened
Tragedy’s lines
Skate its surface
The numerous blood stains
Hint at its purpose
Crafted under moonlight
Forged with sorrow
Depression’s hunched back
Adding the marks for tomorrow
A darkened stone
Which tells my story
My tears condensed
To be redeemed for His glory
Black Heartstone
