glittering and sparkling in the light
cool metal against my skin, above my heart
and below my throat
a constant reminder
gentle reassurance
you are always there

I find my fingers crawling to it
when people are talking too loud
and my thoughts get too panicked
and relief comes
because I remember you
and the serenity you bring

a delicate thing
a beautiful thing
my diamond necklace
is special not because of the stones
or the cut or anything materialistic
but because it's from you
