Diamonds Last Forever

by LadyPearl   Jun 24, 2006


Passion and love fused to one
Shimmering to the light of sun
Said to last forever on
Till the day we both are gone

Diamonds may last, but hearts can die
Diamonds glow on, but love fades by
Hammer and knives can't break this stone
This diamond will not leave me alone

"I love you forever, that is true"
What in the world made me believe you
Losing myself to my gullible nature
Drowning my heart in fake rapture

Commercials flash without any regards
Leaving my memories with disregards
True Love that, diamonds this
A message nobody can ever miss

Leave me now with just this bleeding ring
Watch the omens that you bring
Seeing you smirk at my stained face
A given heart can never be replaced

    This is a a really sad poem, I really liked it. I think the way you described diamonds and your love, was very original. My favorite part is the second stanza, it's beautifully sad.

    Good job!
