the necklace

On November 16, 2015
a poem by [journey]

long and silver
with lots of meaning,
can’t go without it. he
gave it to me, so I hold
and treasure it.

the lock
because our hearts are locked together.

the key
because I hold the key to our hearts.

the cage
because his home isn’t with me.

the bird
because he has to fly to see me.

the locket—

that’s my favorite part. it says
“the little things.” it means
that even if he lives
far away he can still do things for me.

and since he doesn’t live with me,
I appreciate that he talks to me.
