1 Locket 1000 memories

As I hold it in my hand
A thousand memories flood my brain
Holding on by a strand
My life on a chain

Engraved with a message
For the human eye to view
An emotional passage
Reading “I love you”

In the form of a heart
Representing my love
A small piece of art
Prettier than the stars above

As it opens and closes
An image is revealed
As delicate as roses
Once again sealed

A sparkle in the sun
A breeze on my neck
The tears have begun
Leaving me an emotional wreck
