Diamonds In Your Eyes

Just like shining stars in the sky,
Your traits and beauty held so high.

A diamond`s remnants that are so precious,
Labeling you with greed is fallacious.

You came from the bosom of a great seed,
which imbues love and seriousness indeed.

Your demise is still like a dagger in my heart,
Losing two of you is like floating in vague cart.
