Statue with a soul

Between hell, heaven and earth 
A mysterious creature was born 
Able to turn whatever he touched 
Into any kind of stone 
 
The creature seen by humanity as a god 
For what he was able to do 
Tried to understand the world around him 
As he traveled from shore to shore 
Not knowing what joy would bring, what else he could do 
 
For one day he saw something 
Inspiring and beautiful  
Something that tickled his inner soul 
A woman on top of a mountain 
Singing a lullaby, a mesmerizing song 
 
The god attracted to her chant 
For the first time in his entire life 
Stepped on unknown land 
Due to feelings, he never experienced and knew he had 
 
Feelings of love and admiration 
Towards someone who was a mortal 
Who just like him made something so powerful and strong
Was she like him he wondered?  
As he day after day visited her at the exact same spot 
 
Years passed by, but his smile never changed 
Watching her grow old never stunned him or made him faze 
Because ageing didn’t affect him the exact same way 
All he ever dreamt of was for a place he could forever stay 
 
But one day while reaching the shore 
While climbing upon the mountain 
He didn’t see anything, let alone hear 
Was she forgotten he wondered? 
As for the first time in his life he felt something different, when dropping a single tear 
 
His heart that knew something was wrong 
Suddenly started to turn into stone 
As he touched himself in disbelief and forced himself to transform 
That it was the final day he could be with her were he was unable to say goodbye or a final hello 
As he is waiting for his loved one to come back home

Transforming all these feelings within a statue
A statue as a reminder that even a god can get sad
When there are things discovered that they don't understand
At a similar way making them mortal for a moment too
When even their mightiest dreams, just like humans have don't always come true
