Ring of Lies

You gave me a ring of turquoise that long ago day when my tears fell, they landed on my young girl's lap like the ringing from a church bell. You said it was a sin to love me you were to find a way to learn how rid yourself of us even if it meant I had to burn. The cold metal wrapped around me the blue bright against my brown oh how proud you looked while I felt six feet below ground. Old friend I have a secret to share See, I knew you stole the ring Wisdom isn't only gifted to the old, you weren't close to breaking this strong young thing
