Flawless Diamond

I'm a flawless diamond
Full of promise
Radiating for all the world to see
Full of hope
Growing in my skin
Proud to be me
Despite my heartache
Shame & pain

Rainbows emerge after the rain
No matter what is going on
My soul carries on
No one can crush me
Although
I may feel crushed
& want to hide
'cause the pain can be so unbearable
My heart longs to curl up & die

I know my spirit soars
& I am willing to be the woman
I was always destined to be
Silly
Beautiful
Caring
Compassionate
Vulnerable
Unconditional love
