I stole glance after glance at you
Whilst on another you shone
Sparkling away from me,
Unobtainable as evening sunshine.

But unappreciated, flung away
By one who knew not your value.
Traded for costume jewellery.
One night of shallow beauty.

But the evening had never come
The moon had but to shift
And the kiss of the sunshine
Made you glitter more brightly.

Many would wish to have you
They try to take you cheaply.

But I have studied.

You are no cheap trinket.

I'll save for eternity,
And try everything
To obtain that perfect
Sapphire ring.

'I feel like an animal, and I don't think that I get it. But one day I'll see you around.'
