Undefined Fractures

You measure by mass—  
diamond resolve turning quietly,  
its shape carved from silence,  
creating shards of tension.
 
Light bending—crystallizing 
in my shell, waiting to 
crack open in the name of 
weightless worth.

Laura, an interesting set of ideas presented here. Ideas as weightless worth seem like the best any diamond has to offer. Take care and keep the ideas coming! Smiles!
