The Ring

Dark like his heart and glistening silver 

It shines and it beckons just waiting to fool her

She's seduced by the light, so the darkness within

Creeps out and takes over, dripping with sin

The light is soon gone, only darkness remains

It's doesn't take long before she feels the pains

Of anger and fear, violence and aggression 

And soon she finds that she's it's possession

She hurts but the light continues to flicker

And fools her so she thinks that it could be her

Who can be a saviour, battle demons within

But they're not her own and so she can't win

Exhausted she knows that she cannot fight

If it's not her monster; she turns to the light

Her wounds can heal now, she begins to feel sane

The darkness is gone but the scars still remain.

'Dark like his heart, and glistening silver...'
A good insight on how an object can influence a persons mind. I liked this.
