Precious Pearl
Between shells
in an oyster
hidden from the world
Held firmly
I left
a teardrop
Buried in the ocean of heartbreaks
caressed by the rain falling in memory off
one lost treasure bathes
A cold lonely stare looks for direction
held in the shell of my heart
inlaid to rest mother of pearl
Holding you so deep inside darkened skies
who brought the thunder in roaring aches
lightning strikes falling in pain
In a sun kissed mist one treasured rainbow
appears looking at the pot of gold
I open the treasure chest one more time
Slowly opening the shell leaving the teardrop
upon your pillow happy to love dreaming forever in you
a sparkle caressed by the oceans wave
