My Diamond

Making comparisons I normally tend to avoid

But I want to illustrate you're not a soul that is destroyed

Vulnerability you try to avoid at all cost

Causing you to often feel lost

I want you to believe me when I say
You are not broken in any kind of way

Diamonds are formed under crushing pressures

An unseen force causing small treasures

They are formed through intense heat

A hidden activity right under our feet
A covered process, corresponding with the way you conceal
All the things you truly feel
Your bones strain under the weight of your fears
Fighting continuously to hold back your tears

When your emotions seem like a chaotic storm

Let it prevail in its purest form

Because with all the suppressing that you do

I believe your tears are little diamonds too

And I will watch them in awe

As they gently roll down your jaw

So please my love, turn off the light of your masquerade 

Because it is in darkness that jewels are made
