Though it's in her name,

She is no gem - more of a rock.

She walked through a blazing hell,

Which made her priority to mock.


Her every word is sharper

Than the pencil she lent me months ago

Only for me to selfishly keep it;

Currently, that pencil's on the go.


She texted me once: "Where is it?

The pencil you have yet to return?"

I didn't reply yet, though I promised I would,

For her reaction will make the world burn.
