Sometimes
Sometimes I'm a gemstone
But I'm mostly just a pebble
I try to be a good person
But too often I'm a rebel
Sometimes I am colourful
An opal bright and shiny
Sometimes just a dull rock
From the bottom of the briney
Sometimes I am broken
And you see the diamond inside
Sometimes a fragile shell
Washed up with the tide
