Lying in stillness overlapped weeping stones they do pour out rain’s saddened memories.
And rock garden veins are my tired old hands.
I sit in rain.

I am tired; my heart is
sick and sad. From where
the sun stands I will fight
no more forever."

    very nice. Good imagery...

    However, i would've just divided that first line abit. It kinna looses rhythm quickly

    Lying in stillness
    Overlapped, weeping stones
    They do pour out rain's
    Saddened memories
    And rock garden veins
    Are my tired old hands
    I sit in rain

    If it were just a little more cut-up like how i've down(not fucking with your writing, just an example) i think it would be really, really, really good. :)
    Won't you come see me, Queen Jane....

    Leaving the pillow alone tonight
    And I can see for miles
    Speak father with all your might
    Drive in one last nail
    I’d walk right into your hands
    From the end of the earth
    I’d make one final stand
    If you could see what I’m worth
