A quick poem, don't really know what it's about...think flapper era though.
Pearls are for tears;
Pearls are for lovers.
Gift me a string
Twirl it around
Slender-necked goddess
Stares into mirror to see
Ugly duckling
Put on your dancing shoes
Traipse around
Fringe and short skirts
Swirl me about
So fast so tight
Dance me around this floor
Become the center of attention
Don’t make it end
Spotlight on us the way it should be
Is this why you let it be
Drop my hand and leave things go
Stalk away
What things do I have to say
To make you love me?
…Or to make me love you.
Pearls are for tears
Pearls are for lovers
Two words for a same meaning
