The Necklace
April 12, 2022
The way it shimmers in the light
And the way it sits perfectly on my neck
Like it's meant to be.
I can't help but question how it got there.
Was it worth the pain?
The tears?
The sleepless nights?
And knowing I never get to see her again?
Somehow, this necklace makes it better
When the sun hits it,
It shimmers.
I know she's there
Looking over me
Smiling
And thinking to herself how proud she is of me.
I can’t bring her back,
But this necklace will forever connect her to me.

This poem was inspired by the loss of my mother and the necklace of hers that I now wear everyday
