Broken

Those iridescent pearl drops

Shoot rainbow

Each one a memory

Of the wave

That rose once upon a time

In a heart

That hid an emerald sea

Where a water nymph

Spoke in the language

Of promise

A twine of love

Labored hard

To string each dream piece

Building up takes a life time

Not breaking

Almost like the snipping

Of a stray lock of hair

Within minutes

The cord is pieced

But iridescent memories

Remain forever
