Diamonds

Feb 24, 2023

At the lake
we would sit
watch the sun
dance on waves
facets of a jewel

Now alone
I sit with memories
and stroke my finger
where the ring had been
longing for one more

Another day
just one more kiss
a last goodbye
and I watch the waves
alone

if only life
were as strong
as the rings we‘d worn
symbols of eternity
taken too soon
