    i do not sparkle, the chain he bought.
    it shines with light ,dances in sun.
    its only this i have around my throat.
    i look for love a light , but none.
    is it the chain he views.

    i know his heart,a lions roar.
    yet, not my eyes he notices.
    this pretty thing, this deeper hold.
    i long to be in his focus, once ..
    i do not sparkle, the amber sun.
    hangs between my chest.
    our youngest daughters name,
    of cause...

    i feel the ice, the seeing eye.
    did i notice disappointment.
    i am so plain, so darker now.
    what do i care for this sparkle.
    how low i dive deep to flee,
    the passion it binds, holds .
    yet, i love his mind, a lovers word.
    this pretty chain, it burns it burns
    it burns me...stop.

    thank you
    love n peace from saff
    today i found this my thoughts feelings
    am i wrong to question...a lovers gift..

    be whole always thank you for reading

    bravo, I really enjoyed this piece yet again, I like meanings of symbolism in this poem that love is not of material items (in this case a necklace, I think) but it brings a deeper meaning of, to me neways, a wedding ring so to speak that it does not represent love therefore we do not need it to have love, it only holds us back,
    I loved this, it shows the complexity of the human soul of yearning, desire, and more importantly attention from and to others, well written piece, nice form and structure also. keep at it, check out "Blind Blue Eyes" for my love piece although not twisted in 2nd thoughts but rather in feelings themselves. peace
