RINGED

I dab a little blush on my cheeks 
Rosy, but not too much
Just bright enough to remind him of that spring
We spent our lives half awake, half asleep
And a little scarlet on my lips 
He always loved them that red
It brought out the inner me, he'd said 
Before he came alive in my eyes
No no no, it's just business, I say
Am in control 
And have put a check to those emotions 
But the silver Calvin klein watch on my dresser 
He bought that on my 19th birthday 
How he called me from my balcony
Haha 
Those feelings flood right back
His brown eyes shinning taupe 
His awkward grin that struck my heart
The obvious crush we both held off 
As he slipped it in my palm
Even though I wear it now
It doesn't mean I still pine for him 
He didn't love me enough 
And I couldn't love him less 
Since I couldn't break his spell
I got myself ringed
A reminder that he didn't want this
Today will be just biz
