Troy Toney Poet Rhyme

Diamond In the Rough

My heart knows what it wants
But to my luck it's off limits 
Beauty I can see and not touch
Obey the sign read and listen

My ever increasing desire
Diamond I want to hold you
There is glass in my way
I must respect not break through

I know this diamond is priceless 
And should be handled with care
If I could put it up on a pedestal 
Something I'd definitely dare

If I had an opportunity just once
If prove I'm the perfect man
Elegant diamond would be displayed
I wpuld take care best i can

I see a very rare value
A beautiful diamond in the rough
I want to fix and fine tune
From being handled to tough 

If I was the lucky handler 
Of this most beautiful gem
I would respect and cherish it
Until my last breathe it gave in
