A poem??

I found it lying on the ground, a necklace of gems, glittering in the moonlight. Eagerly did I snatch it, fearful lest someone may come and lay claim to it. Placing it against my breast, I admired myself. Enamoured of the light playing with the gems, I was captivated. I clasped it around my neck and made secure the catch. I rejoiced that it was impossible to unfasten it. Anyone who needs to remove it may have to break it. I was joyful, for now no one can take away my prize. Only when the sun came up in the morning did I realize that it was a necklace of tears that I wore.
