Diamonds
Through eyes of soot, hidden
in deepest chambers of earth, where
pain is left to die amongst the dearth
I see diamonds, sparking in the grit
looking past the s**t and routine

each side so very smooth
and rich, in character
amongst the flaws
but to her she never saw
and never will
dawn awakens again
and clearly I see
