• The light bounces off her finger.
    The silver encased stone that is my heart.
    A topaz, not a diamond, not an engagement, but a promise nonetheless..
    That she will wear my heart on her finger, and would love me forever, and that I would wear her heart on my finger, in a topaz ring, and would love her forever. A promise that we would not take the rings off. I would always love her, and she would love me.. forever and a day.
    I walk by her today. A smile plays around her lips at the sight of me, and her beautiful brown hair falls in front of the diamonds of her eyes. She brushes it away, and I see there is no ring on her finger. I look down and see taht there's no ring on mine either. And I remember....
    It's not me she's smiling at anymore....
