Little Diamond

You were a gift
i saw you sparkle
a little diamond
stirring in my life
you began to shine
your aura blinded everyone
they were intimidated
how could something so precious be in their care
there had to be something wrong there
they were scared
you'd change their life forever
you'd take them off their cushion
you'd challenge them in every way
you'd demand their faith and strength
you were asking for too much
more than they could give
so they decided to nip you in the bud
they cursed you for all that ever went wrong since
they wished you were never born

forgive me
that i let them succeed
in making me hate you
making me me doubt you
making me wish i had never realised you
till your flame began to flicker
with all the layers of blame piled up on you
forgive me
for i no longer can bear to see you dying this way

i give you my hand
come back to me
come save me
come i will embrace you
come i will protect you with my life
come take your seat within me
my little diamond
shine my love
shine so bright
that the world basks in your divinity
and bows down to your sheer magnificence
