Emerald (Stars, Scars);

by D. Xavier Bari

Emerald
Stars

I
can
still
see
in
my
mind
the
first
time
I
ever
saw
you
both.


Your
smile
as
you
placed
the
loop
of
thin
gold
around
your
lovely
neck.


I
hear
my
voice
as
I
said
the
emeralds
brought
out
the
green
in
your
eyes.


        Emerald
Scars

I
can
still
feel
the
scars
on
my
back
made
from
all
those
many
nights.


If
only
I
had
known
they
would
be
what
was
left
in
the
end.


I
truly
feel
I
would
have
bought
you
finger
nail
clippers
instead
of
the
emerald
necklace.
