A diamond in the rough
hasn't been a diamond for long
From the core
it has been forged in the hottest fires
molded and melted
and hardened
forcing itself through the densest
praying for the chance to make it out alive
to be able to shine brightly in the sun
and through it all
it was plucked from its cave
stripped of its shell
polished and made new
Exposed and vulnerable
Don't break it
