A heart of stone is too heavy to own
Yet, I need one if I want to survive
Words, once so tender, now cuts to the bone
With you my heart was once truly alive
As my head hits the wall, the boundaries fall
I stay silent and no one hears my cry
My heart is broken as my tears exclaim
Why does it take so long for me to die?
A heart of stone is too heavy to own
Yet, I need one if I want to survive
Hurt - though your apologies are sincere
I tried and tried, but now cannot draw near
Finding strength to tell you hurt me so
Sorry love, I just have to let you go

YOUR PRINCE IN SHINING ARMOUR WILL COME AND FIND YOU!!!

aw rebekka such a heart felt write, it may just be me and my tired eyes but this one line I had to keep reading over "Finding strength to tell you hurt me so"
It is out of place I know is hard to do with using nine syllables, however it is missing that with it written like this...
mayeb omething like this would not stumble so badly
"No strength left, for you done hurt me so."
However the rest of the sonnet is well written and I am not saying that line is better then yours, I just stumbled over it and had to read it over and over...

Heart cannot be of stone because it will lose its meaning and only matter will remain. Love will go on coming, blow will also not spare us. But we can survive all these if we learn how not to get attached. Let your heart and love amuse you again.

It has been so long since I read a sonnet. And as you well know m'love I'm a sucka for them! This was really amazing. There was so much heart and soul poured into this and the emotion was incredibly intense. I loved it. You always have a way of blowing my mind. It's so great to read your pieces. You need to find more time for poetry. Your gift is far too brilliant to be ignored.
