Life like a pearl necklace

The pearls weren’t really white,


they were a warm oyster beige,


with little knots in between


so if they broke, you only lost one.


I wished my life could be like that,


knotted up


so that even if something broke,


the whole thing wouldn’t come apart.

I never thought of pearls, and life this way.
