Why Are Hearts Not Made Of Stone Comments

Hearts are not made of stone because men were meant to feel love - otherwise we would never be here at all and Adam & Eve would have only one son left.

I've often wondered the same my friend. Why can't the heart be tough enough to repel the waste of the world? But, if it was then how could it absorb the wonder? Wonderful poem (as always) , and absolutely soul-level questions.

Many of our professions need our hearts to be stone, other wise soldiers would not shoot someone whose heart is really penetrable, on the operation theater, the surgeon would not take the knives, the judges would not deliver the judgement, so we should not have the stone hearts when we are with our loved ones... An interesting poem that has made me to think deeper! Thank you..

it is the vulnerability of the heart that gives it life... a beautiful poem, well written.

It is to be hoped hearts will repair in time if broken, now stone, well-- I`ve known a few people who seem to have a heart of stone though, a lovely poem.

Stone is hard and cold, which the human heart is not, and therefore is easily broken. Good one, well written.
