Buried in Stone

Once upon a time in a land far away,
There was a young boy who never got his way.
The girl that he loved was in love with another,
His mother the witch was an outcast, an "other".
But then the boy ran far away from his place.
The girl missed that boy and cried for many days.
The boy returned home to find that the girl had passed,
The cause was heart break, it shattered like glass.
The boy slowly crumbled inside, it tore him apart,
For once this girl had his heart.
Years flew by, the man died alone,
Because his heart was buried in stone.
