The small chest, it lays in his closet.

Hed never dared to open the thing, not since his minset

Was overturned by sadness and tragedy

But maybe in it lays the remedy?

He opened the jewelry box and saw the wedding ring

That really caused deep pain and aching

For it had belonged to his deceased wife

Shot in the head, punctured by knives

Tears ran down the man's face as he shoved it away

As a single necklace fell his way

The most beautiful and decorated thing to have been in here

Small, bittersweet looking

A sorrowed silver tear.
