Thou ring on my finger

It broke today, into unequal halves (an oxymoron). A part of it glinted on the floor, the other half slipped onto the stand. I knew the break was coming - I noticed that it had cracked a few weeks ago, and it was just a matter of time.

The finger feels unfamiliarly light.

Rings supposedly symbolise eternity, this one apparently didn't get the memo.

I picked up the broken pieces and threw them away.

If only life were as easy to clean up.
