Diamond

I'm in the rough,
Sometimes you pass me by looking past the shine on the inside,
Only focusing on what you see on the outside.
I have a tough exterior and a fragile interior that seems to never be taken into consideration.
I do feel, so treat me as if I was a pearl, a ruby, an emerald...
Treat me as what I am because I am precious and worth holding closely.
I am worth being called your something special,
I'm worth the time spent,
All I need is a chance.
I'm the one who stands behind you and stays through thick and thin.
I care, all the others don't, it's all an act.
Realize please and open your eyes to what's right here sparkling...
A DIAMOND...
