A circular band of metal
Was suppose to have
had some deep meaning
you know, "To have and
to scold, from this day
play it forward, for worse,
for poorer excuses, not in
sickness, get divorced -
she gets all the wealth,
goodbye love, nothing to
cherish, cause I died inside,
and then you depart, don't
let the door hit you on your
way out, that's right, eyes
forward, don't look back;"
All those years together
she was plotting her attack
Zulued my ass - the horns
of the bull came from both
sides and up the middle
Even if I had seen it coming
I was still a sitting duck; the
only reminder of this hellish
assault is the ghostly dent
left on my wedding finger
She had the bloody nerve
to say, "Don't throw away
your ring; all men throw
their rings away!" And
someday when I see her
I'll tell her I did just to piss
her off; so much for the
inscription inside - was
meant to be there for ever
but when the love ended
so did its meaning; that's
why when I meet the right
person someday, don't
know if I can go through
this again - we'll see . . .
