This ring

This ring on my finger

This ring you gave me

Making a promise

A promise to stay with me

To not hurt me

Not to leave me

To someday marry me

To have a family

But do you mean it

Do you really care

Are you really the one

One for me

Am I really the one

One for you

Should I let go of the past

Of the hurt

The sorrow

And betrayal of the others

Should I move on

And learn to trust again

Tear down the walls I built so high

So high around my heart

The wall I let down around no one

Not even you
