Jade Heart Necklace

Large jade heart pendant
dangled from a gold chain,
lying on a breathing chest,
with its heart underneath
mangled from too many
heartaches with no remedies.
Jade heart necklace:
a witness of battles lost,
comments dripped from mouths,
temperatures of irrational thinking;
it’s a witness as it lives above
the heart.
Jade heart necklace:
a precious stone that is stronger
than fire. It’s impossible
for it to be charred. It’s poetry
without words or any images.
It’s a mere shade of green,
getting wiser.
It stands for one vow
after having been touched
by the fingers of a dead grandfather;
a hope that the jade heart necklace
isn’t one to betray.
