My pearl

My pearl, I loved so much. A hole through the middle- Stringed into a necklace- Right on my chest. Love was too small of a word to describe; How I felt. One day, it was stolen. My pearl; The one I held so dear, Stolen by sullied hands. Left alone, I felt it, Part of me was missing; Ruined by another. My pearl was sullied. Others laughed. For it was just a pearl But I knew it wasn't.
