Array ( [sid] => 42767 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Band of Gold [time] => 2004-04-11 15:44:05 [hometext] => I write of things I have felt and have watched others go through. [bodytext] => The tears are really falling now
my pillow's getting wet
Can't get it through my head
I wont accept it yet
I know that you aren't really mine
she's lain her claim on you
How could Fate be so damned cruel
don't know what I'm supposed to do
Guess I should have known better
fell in love with a married man
Should've had my head examined
you hold my heart there in your hand
She wears your ring on her finger
I know that you wear hers there too
I just wear my heart upon my sleeve
'cause I'm so in love with you
I look at your left hand, there it is
that simple band of gold
Will that band always be right there
even when you're very old
Will you look back one day
wonder what could have been with me
Had you slipped it off
shared our love, taken time to see
My tears are still falling
my pillows soaking wet
Until the day you say goodbye
I won't accept it yet

This is a beautiful expression of unacceptance.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, the rhyme scheme was very powerful and your choice of words was fitting.
It's amusing how just a little gold band can hold so much meaning.
