Ring

I am waiting and the warmth of you I see the jewelry worn proudly I have some as well Don't let the ring weigh No reminder of what was My ring is worn but it carries hope I always wanted you to wear it The edges are worn and battered But the inside is smooth and new It will give you freedom and hope A hope that Is a sunrise It's dark but over the horizon I am I sit with my chains and the sun The rays gleam golden and warm The warmth of you I pawned some Pawned for relief and I can run The sun to my back we meet Dance without music Slips the ring on your finger I let you feel the worn and battered Share my triumphs and my victory And the breeze lifts your hair Like a Goddess and the wind Wisps of hair fly to me Entangle me in your embrace The box you carry is lighter You and lips raw from storms The rain has washed us clean Rain that lifts the dirt and grime My ring is polished and gleams Looks better without the past The dance will go till sunset Waking I watch the Sun It's the Sun from my dream I see you and the wind

Wow Patrick! Brilliantly penned! I love the different sides to the ring - the worn and battered and the smooth and new. I love how you've used the ring to signify the different aspects of you. Very well written!
