My mom gave me a necklace
I swore to never take it off
Wearing it I knew
she was always near
I know longer felt alone
No longer in enternal fear
Then one day
I was force to take it off
And that small light dissapeared
I felt alone
Not the alone when their is someone who cares
The real alone when you know no one is going to save you
No one is listening
No one is there
The moments felt like hours
Every thought consumed me
That morning I was able to put it back on
But that isn't the message to this poem
This necklace is the only thing keeping me alive and the promise I made behind it
To one day give it to my daughter
Till then I will hold it dear
Never take it off
Till that promise is fulfilled

~ I love you mother , for this necklace ~
