Gone

-
I held a crystal in my hand,
So perfect and sparklingly clear...
With a sweep of a hand
Broken, shattered into pieces...

I held a diamond in my hand,
A perfect cut,
So beautiful...
In an instant, snatched away...

I held a rose in my hand,
With petals so delicate and fragrance so sweet...
Days passed, its petals turned brown
One by one, they fell to the ground...

Life is consistently inconsistent,
Nothing definite...
With a snap of a finger, everything stops
In a blink of an eye, everything's gone

    I think Ive written this poem before

    I held a crystal in my hand
    I held a diamond in my hand
    I held a rose in my hand

    no I do not have 3 hands
    the crystal and the diamond were in the same hand

    I sold the crystal
    I sold the diamond

    I got rich and asked a girl out for dinner
    I gave her the rose in my hand
    I got slapped in in the end

    ah well
    life is crap
    nothing good.....
    With a snap of a finger, everything stops
    with a slap of hand, my reputation drops
