Diamond in the Rough
In solitude
The night is quiet
I sit and remember how I used to enjoy the solitude and quiet of the night
That is what this is really about, huh
Getting back to those things that I used to do
The things that spoke to my heart and mind
The things that rounded me out
Made me multifaceted, multidimensional
The Diamond in the rough.
In the rough
Lost
Not knowing you are a diamond
In your natural state
At its purest and most valuable
Ready
Ready to be polished and fine-tuned
Becoming what you are while acknowledging what you won't ever be
Ordinary
Diamond
Special
Unique
It's a process
Don't hate it
Don't judge it
Don't overthink it
Just do and be and allow the old unnecessary layers to be sloughed off
WHO ARE YOU
A Diamond in the rough
Rough times, rough places, rough people
Rough
Just rough all around
But, shining
Shining in spite of
Shining
Shining in the midst of
Shining because of
Shining because if you don't, can't, won't, who will you be
Cut carefully by the creator, the path is clear, don't you see
Your color resembles that of a rainbow - showing great promise
Your worth - measured higher than carats
An imitation can be beautiful, but will soon tarnish
Daily wear and tear cannot be handled
The certificate of authenticity has been issued and is available
Stop putting it on the shelf and trying to be some soon to tarnish, something else cheap, you almost got me but I see you version
You cannot be duplicated
When His light hits you, what will be revealed
Can you see it
Oh the beauty that is His creation
Do you see it
Out of the hot heat
Out of the side of man or mountain
Perfectly imperfect
Unique
One of a kind.
Will you see it
Her
Choose to be found by the only one who should be looking
YOU
How spectacular and radiant
How useful
Sharp
Strong
Powerful
Beautiful
Precious
Diamond
You
The night is quiet
I sit and remember how I used to enjoy the solitude and quiet of the night
That is what this is really about, huh
Getting back to those things that I used to do
The things that spoke to my heart and mind
The things that rounded me out
Made me multifaceted, multidimensional
