We Are Gems

How long will it take
How long will your process be
We hold ourselves back
Afraid of what others may think

We are scared that our life is different from each others
We don’t want to share because of what others shock value may be
But in reality all our heartache
All our sorrows

They are the pressures we need to go through
The pressures that mold that gem inside us
Getting refined by each circumstance
How long will we keep our gems hidden from each other

How long must we not allow it to shine
Who will it be to finally crack our silver lining
To shine light into the encased gem
To be pulled out for all to see

If only we would see ourselves like shining jewels
How beautiful would we look to the world
How enticing would we be to each other

No longer hidden
No longer shunned
No longer kept away for someone
Lets shine on each other

Lets allow ourselves to bestow these gifts on one another
Whether your a ruby, emerald, diamond or pearl
We are all meant to shine

We are different jewels for a reason
We have different stories
Lets allow our love to shine
And love each other for our different stories

For it is human nature to be unique
Lets find happiness in the our sorrows
And let’s rejoice in our extraordinary differences
