may 23rd
you gave me a necklace
with a heart locket
and it had my name

and on may 24th
the clasp broke
and i lost the locket
with my name on the outside

may 25th
i went looking
for the heart
that said my name

may 26th
i found the chain
and the broken clasp
that made my name lost

may 27th
i said i was sorry
and you said
"it's fine"

may 28th
i didn't believe you
when you said
"it's fine"

and today, on may 29th
i found the heart
that said my name
it was in your chest all along
