Diamond in the rough

Diamond in the rough,
You’ll get cut up before they see the beauty you can be.

Diamond in the rough,
Prepare
to be broken,
to be made into a token of affection,
to be his hope when he’s on bended knee.

And soon you will see,
Only you’re powerful enough to break yourself.

The dust of identity becomes a tool of technology.
You’re clear cut and costly

Pave over the hostilities
Leaving casualties in your wake
For a love he can’t forsake.

And in the evening shade
Memories will fade
Rough edges
Worn down to the norm
Packaged and sold
Wrapped in gold

Another broken token of affection
