LOVE PENDANT
LOVE PENDANT
I was that pendant you
Hung around your neck
Our heartbeats beating
Beethoven's fifth symphony
Acclaimed the best
And then I got flung
Torn out of the chain
By a known assailant
And you didn't protest
Nor did you lodge an FIR
With the police station
Because the magic
Between us had fizzled
And you needed to
Hang a new pendant
