It shines and lusters

Through any case, she tries to hide it

Its jagged edges sprawl, like the rays of the sun

Hypnotized by its beauty, she grabs hold of it

Edges piercing her fragile skin

But oh how the diamond glows

She barely notices the crimson

Gracefully floating through the pores on her delicate fingers

Connective tissue starts to mend the pain, lacerations become scars

She ignores the old wounds as she cannot leave the diamond be

She’ll hide it with her forever until she can no longer feel
