"love doesn't last"

Crying boy

when i heard this

"love doesn't last, only diamonds do"

it blew my mind



how superficial can a person be

how could you say that to me

leaving are love left behind



the way you said it

the look in your eyes

bitterly unkind



left me speechless

if this is you know

what else will i find



you could have been joking

but i know sutle hints

your walking a thin line



between me loving you

or leaving you

but your worth more to me

than gold or rhine



so you want a ring on your finger

well so do I

but until you show me different

all you'll get is this sign



with a picture of a ring on it

so if you decide to leave

you won't get what's mine



so love doesn't last forever

but diamonds do

this might be lust

because i think i hate you



words are vessels

and yours just sank

better abandoned ship

or walk my plank



i can't believe you

uttered those words

so cruel, so conniving

undoubtedly absurd



well i got you a ring

with your same qualities

its cheap and fake

just like you

wow great poem...kinda harsh but sometimes you have to say those things to get the point across...for some people lost lasts forever and for some people it doesn't....if this is about an experience you wen through then i hope everything turns out ok...good luck!!

"Cheap and fake just like you" Now, now that was unkind. Frankly blunt. Would that saying, change her mind. Sure that was a challenge set by her. Fair enough. Think over. Diamonds are a girl's best friend. Your shock very well displayed in the poem. Perhaps I've added a bit to your pain. Never mind. Just brush it off as dust.
