Rubies are Red

She cried like diamonds
and spoke like rubies
Emeralds were under her feet

She wept but she was strong
and rubies are red like
the blood she shed
when she ran in the
trimmed green grass

She fell like the sunset
and danced like pluto
Stars were under her feet

She surrendered with beauty
A small and distant soul
Whose memories could only harm her now
Though stars eventually fall
Leaving the atmosphere large and lonely

She cried diamonds
and rubies are red
like the blood she shed.
