If love seems like a burden

You can easily break the house of relationship!

I will be a piece of stone

I will carry the scars of a broken heart all my life alone.

As much as you squeeze me!

There will still be something left,

I know the day you will be destitute

Will come back to me again.

No matter how much you push me away!

Within the circle of time I shall still be,

The day you become all alone,

That day will come back to me.

No matter how much you burn me!

Yet I shall remain in formless form,

From the surreal if not real

I will protect you forever.
