They say diamonds are a girl's best friend

I don’t know who “they” are

But I do know

That I’ve always preferred

My simple circle chain that I wear every day

Maybe the circle does have diamonds,

At least fake ones, regardless

They still look like the

Glittering stones that anyone

Would struggle to deny they desire

I remember the first one I wore, when the

Necklace had a message I

Didn’t yet understand

Something everyone says, but

You don’t truly comprehend the meaning

You say it all the time in vain, and when someone

Hurts you, you hold this with you

Maybe you’ll feel better

“What goes around comes around”

In vain you think, they’ll get theirs too, someday

My friends always joked and laughed at me,

Asking why I always wore the

Stupid talisman

I held the secret meaning as a

Reminder, just so I wouldn't do something I’d regret

Until I did, just as we all do, it’s easy sometimes to

forget what’s right, do something

In the heat of the moment

We all try to forget when we

Make a mistake, they’re all trying to forget mine, too
