don’t let them
tell you the stars aren’t really
diamonds
twinkling just for you
waiting to adorn your dreams
while you slumber
where you live out all your heart’s desires
don’t let them
tell you it’s silly to
guard your heart so carefully
or to love him so completely
don’t let them
convince you life isn’t hard
and that the world
isn’t broken
it is
but you in your diamonds
bringing life to your big dreams
holding the hand of the one
your heart calls home
giving from the beauty and kindness
that flows through your soul
you
will
change
it
all

Tara, that one is wonderful. And don’t let them tell you that you can’t see those diamonds with your eyes shut. You can.
