Free Cee Ignore It If It Rings

IGNORE IT IF IT RINGS It's strange but so many people say the same fuc*ing thing they say “take back that necklace, that bracelet and diamond ring” those same people hand out the very same advice they say “that heart you thought so warm ain't very nice” I was busy thinking about today while they were talking about tomorrow I was hoping for kindness while her cold heart was bent on dispensing sorrow the dreams I built on prayers were swiftly coming apart which urged them to say “don't depend on a hardened heart” sometimes I can't express the depression I embrace because she says ugly things time can never erase she tries to justify her lies with one more falsification and fading fleetingly now is a long deceased fascination maybe my first mistake was trying to hold on to a lie or perhaps it was believing a romance like ours could never die but sometimes the sun seems so bright I'm made blind by the moon for instance that she was using a man born with a silver spoon and so that bracelet, necklace and ring remain in her possession although she owes me more than a singular confession so when those people tell me to listen to what my soul has to say all I hear is my love telling me to simply run away but suddenly one person says something that finally reaches my ear and the joy we once shared turns into sadness and fear that's when I find out that no matter how sweet love seems it can still so stalwartly sting and that's why a pawn shop now owns that bracelet, necklace and diamond ring © 2012.....PHREEPOETREE ~free cee!~
