Gold

With time you grew cold


and precious like a rare piece of gold.

People came to look at you

Wondering for how much you can be sold.

They even criticized you

saying that your value is much too high.

Others came to feast their eyes

Some made promises which turned out to be lies

While others acted the role of thieves and spies.

Nevertheless with time you grew so cold

And precious, like a rare piece of gold.
