Black Diamond Night

As he gazes at the beauty that lays inside his hand. He's hoping that she'll love it 'cause it cost more than his land. He only loves this woman, so he's hoping she'll accept. The ring he got his gorgeous and he just went in debt. It's the only one he's ever seen with it's wonder shining black. He called the bank to get a loan and they ask if he smoked crack. He's driving to her house now while thinking what to say. He's not thinking about the diamond or what he had to pay. He gets there kinda early to show her his surprise. What he see's when he pulls up pains his loving eyes. He see's his lovely woman in someone else's truck. Then he just starts crying and cussing all his luck. He walks straight up to them and she rolls her window down. She says she doesn't love him and for him to leave her town. He's screaming and he's crying 'cause he's mad enough to fight. The Black Diamond in his pocket. Oh! What a crappy night. Dustin Self (Black Diamond Contest) 8/28/12
