only soft on the surface, like belief in eternal light
got silver steel eyes that excel at any given fight
the stars and i sit in the dark, all alone at night
but soon enough i’ll be glistening so boldly bright
my gemmed mind is in the state of creative craze
the end of an era is my because for this faded haze
colored paper rolling in while envisioning the golden days
when a dirty diamond like me will be visiting a mighty gaze
why buy jewelry that’s priced so elegantly
while rejecting carbon that craves no delicacy
are you too dusty to believe, to not think hesitantly
are you not wise enough to trust i’ll be polished eventually
even the finest rubies need their time to shine
even in the dimmest world, watch them age like wine
so i exhale in a foreign land and stop looking for the thrilling signs
manifest a soaring dream, i promised i’ll be living mine
