I might be a diamond in the rough Or a panel of shattered glass Pace yourself from getting gruff   Or you’ll tare my lace to shreds I’ve welcomed you into my soul No earthy being has known me as well When gentle you healed my wounds Distance yourself and a knife rips my heart I had nearly given up dreams once shared Till new distance caused new ephanitic birth Now I may know you not Though able to learn to love you afresh I beg you look upon me with trust Remember the past with a learning eye Do not fall back into boyhood again I am now able to move on up or out I have written these words after hours Attempting to thinking outside this box It is your call now Adventure is summoning me to life anew I might be a diamond in the rough Or shards of broken glass You can help me become whole again If you care to lend a helping hand

Diamond in a Rough
I might be a diamond in the rough Or a panel of shattered glass Pace yourself from getting gruff   Or you’ll tare my lace to shreds I’ve welcomed you into my soul No earthy being has known me as well When gentle you healed my wounds Distance yourself and a knife rips my heart I had nearly given up dreams once shared Till new distance caused new ephanitic birth Now I may know you not Though able to learn to love you afresh I beg you look upon me with trust Remember the past with a learning eye Do not fall back into boyhood again I am now able to move on up or out I have written these words after hours Attempting to thinking outside this box It is your call now Adventure is summoning me to life anew I might be a diamond in the rough Or shards of broken glass You can help me become whole again If you care to lend a helping hand
