Stoned

Nothing is forever. All that glitters isn't Gold.
Precious not the Pearl is. Nothing certain's ever told.
I am Emerald Green with Envy. Seeking Vengence Ruby Red.
His eyes were Sapphire Blue like every tear I've ever shed.
I saw through him Clear as Diamonds, and his heart was Onyx Black.
Turquoise afternoons I wasted wondering how to get him back.
He stole my Silver lining, and outshined my Opal heart.
Him as rare as Platinum records hit my bull'seye with his dart.
Amethysts to say I miss you Garnet kisses sent your way.
Crossing Aquamarine oceans praying that I never stray
from the Peridot fung shui of our plain as Topaz home.
Only you my Gem have ventured out to roam.
