The Necklace on my Neck

With the necklace on my neck
I’m on the lookout of gold
when I discovered it
I realized it was always there
with me shining

Yet I kept on searching
like an ignorant buyer
when I touched the gold
what did I uncover,
the gold in the necklace

I went on
and found the gold
in the necklace is the same
gold shining in the ring,
glittering in the bracelet

it is the same you in me
in me it is the same you

all the problems of the world
dissolved, though they were
just as it were

the necklace on my neck
a bonding that was lost
in the bondage
