The Ring


Broken.
How much can you put into something
So small?
What makes me feel
So much?
When it breaks
Why do I react so strongly?
What makes me feel
So much
For something
So small?

I do.
It meant a lot to me
I had it for only a
Small while
But I put everything I felt into it
It has gone through it all with me
And now it is gone.
I have it no more

Though I wear it still
It is in pieces.
Shattered.
I put so much in
Now it is all gone.

Broken.
