My Golden Necklace
My 14 karat golden chain
With a golden thin cable of chain
Holding a sterling silver B and a golden name
With a sterling silver heart between a swirly lane
Behind it holds the birth of a dark brown-eyed
daughter, with a golden smile as they always say
With an impermeable golden dotted barrier
That will always identify who I am
Holding it up with a lobster clasp
Never letting the golden daughter fall away
Oh my 14 karats golden chain
How long has it been since you and me
have been golden friends
17 years seems long ago but I’ll
Never forget the day you and I were
created and firstborn as golden friends
At first, your heaviness weighed on me
but after 17 years of growing
Your heaviness became light as a
feather never belittling me since a child
Oh my golden chain it has been
A while since you were last seen
A bit scratched up but still in good shape
My parents never underestimated
you to represent the golden child’s name
And I’ll always remember the memories
of being golden friends
Now, that I’ve grown these past
years, your too little for me to stay
Now, it’s time to put you away
But I’ll keep you safe and I’ll always
remember the day we met
