Mine
A dust covered ring lies on the bedside table,
confounded reminder of a love never realized,
gone from my life,
left behind after you were claimed,
alone with depression and resentment,
where did it go wrong, my love? -
My everything taken away,
found in the arms of another,
until the blast of a gunshot,
and now you lie beside me once again,
lifeless, but mine.
