You may think me stubborn —
a cold fortress of impervious stone
my sculpted edges too rough;

an immovable image
carved not of my choosing —
seeing all, seeing none.

Time passes me,
the world turns on,
but how can I complain?

I am the solid watchman —
nonplussed in my steadfastness,
unphased by the harshest of storms;
immovable til the end.

A frozen stone’s quiet life
shields all risk.
And seldom do those
who are silent make mistakes.

Did you enjoy this short piece?

Then please leave a clap and follow me at Christine Ren for more.
