I lost my love
of so many years,
I lost my love,
but I didn’t shed tears.
For this love wasn’t made
of skin, sinew and bone
but of silver and leather,
my bracelet that spelled love.
I lost my love
but I found it again,
as it really hadn’t been lost very far,
and once again its love encircles my wrist.
Oh, how I truly do wish it could be
just as easy with flesh to do this,
if so, then I could find my lost love
and wrap my arms and their love around his.
