On cement You lie Broken Edges still raw Left alone Forgotten Once treasured Now abandoned Oh how you adorned those long fingers With painted nails Your silver encircling her pride Yet time had strained your vivacity And had broken your frame Fallen You stayed Among those anxious feet Waiting for those long familiar fingers Only to be picked up by strangers Admired Then thrown away For a broken ring, like a broken person, was of no use to them.

Reflect
On cement You lie Broken Edges still raw Left alone Forgotten Once treasured Now abandoned Oh how you adorned those long fingers With painted nails Your silver encircling her pride Yet time had strained your vivacity And had broken your frame Fallen You stayed Among those anxious feet Waiting for those long familiar fingers Only to be picked up by strangers Admired Then thrown away For a broken ring, like a broken person, was of no use to them.
