Gifted jewelry holds no sentimental value And thank god for it. I can still wear these gorgeous earrings without guilt or sadness, like a ring would leave behind. I am beautiful and you are gone And thank god for it.

Earrings
That cold, unfeeling being surrounds you with his towering weight; corrupting you, mind and soul. My hand was placed in yours; Soon after, he took it in his. Once bright blue eyes have lost their luster The grey's overcast all else. We both cannot have you; his grip is far too tight. My calls into your darkness, muffled, by the creature covering your ears. I sorrow, seeing you so lifeless, The crumbling shadow of you who once courted me. Not for long, but such time will be precious. I sorrow, seeing you in such pain, Wishing my kiss could aid. What a brave soul you are, Knowing this battle is best fought alone. What kindness and wisdom is kindled Knowing I would be left gasping in it's wake. With a sigh, a nod, a hug, I say: So long, blue eyes. Though we may not meet again, Takes these words that I offer. When that shade's gone and done with you, Shine, and keep on shining.

So Long, Blue Eyes
You're just like me Like a mirror reflection Touch our hands to the glass We look so different But I like what you like You think how I think You speak as I do And I loved who you love The difference in our identical reflections Is that he is no longer on my side of the glass and now stands behind you on yours Identical in every way Save for the heartache I can only hope that he keeps these reflections dissimilar At least for your sake
