Theft
They left when no guard saw them go
And took with them the Diamond Heart.
This theft we all would later know
As why the Diamond War would start
When death removed the gorgeous glow
From bodies dumped inside the cart.
The bodies dumped inside the cart
Had nowhere else where they could go.
They lost the life that made them glow.
You cannot warm a stiffened heart.
Though no one thought this war would start,
It did, and now that's all we know.
It started, and that's all we know.
I see your head rest in the cart.
They stop, reload, and then they start.
I cannot go where you will go
At least until my weakened heart
Goes stiff and loses all its glow.
It's stiff and lost all of its glow.
The thieves escaped, but they don't know
What happened to the Diamond Heart
When you were placed inside the cart.
This one must stay, but some must go,
And further warfare needs to start.
As further warfare wants to start,
The Diamond Heart will cease to glow,
At least for those who have to go,
Who never more will need to know
The others lying in the cart
Are still just like the Diamond Heart.
They're still just like the Diamond Heart,
But did their beating ever start,
Or were they always in the cart,
And did some ever see them glow?
The thieves confuse all that we know,
Except we also have to go.
It is the heart that makes one glow,
But when we start, we soon will know
Into the cart, we all shall go.
