Diamond

Diamond a poem

I see the indifference

Expression worn in resilience

You wear it so casually

Does it just come naturally?

 

As you face the demons

Forcing you with reasons

To hide yourself away

You still feeding on that pain?

 

They say pain makes you stronger

But it’s true only if you resisted under

All that agonizing pressure

‘cuz once it dealt with you, you’re a diamond

And what can cut something that brilliant?

 

I’ve had times I wanna just drop

Everything and walk away and stop

Listening to: do this !do that! suffer this!

And sacrifice that! but, that’s stupid

Who ever saw a victim invite their murder?

That won’t work, i’ll fight like a soldier

 

I see the deceit and I just trample

It, And i learn by example

with my irrevocable hope

they’ll be groping at their throats

Wondering if ears or their voice deceived them,

What do they know, ha! that’s the reason they’re deaf

 

I’ve heard people say promises

They never keep, they’re only hostages

To power,

And to whosoever

Has the ends or the greens

To justify their disloyal means!

Shame on them for being bought out, forget it!

we’re not that cheap we’re out of their budget! OH!

 

We’re a diamond

Sure you can get an easy fake

But how long til it will break?

How long till that fake

Goes ahead and takes

You for granted

Just for a bank account expanded?

We’re the priceless gems and pearls in an oyster

They’re just a broiler

Whatever they take they just burn away

But we diamonds, we constantly repay

Other’s efforts with love and understanding

Not with abandonment and double dealing

 

 

What do you even get,

‘cuz when you’re dead

You’ll be all set

None of your worldly items go with you

Why so pompous, you get a dark grave for value

 

 

We’re a diamond

Sure you can get an easy fake

But how long til it will break?

How long till that fake

Goes ahead and takes

You for granted,

 

Karma will get you back

When instead of defending you chose to attack

 

Coals went through the process

we bared and lived through the nonsense

Where we’ll be shining bright diamonds

While you’re still stuck as vilified items
