Clumsy hands moving up and down
Haunted fingertips infinitely counting
For every pearl a tear dropped
For every tear a pearl counted
Memories attached
Feelings concealed
Plenty to reveal
Symbol of purity and renovation
A continuous prompt to be sincere
An urge to remain dignified
A push to keep searching for happiness
The perfect gift she has ever received
From the one she will always grieve
