Diamond in the Rough

Folder: 
Society

You are a diamond
in the making,
tempered
and pressured
in the trials of life.

You are flawless.

All your imperfections
are just on the surface;
they cannot penetrate
into your heart.

You are unbreakable.

Your strength
to bear hardships
is unrivaled;
your polish
is untarnished.

You are priceless.

You are worth more
than your circumstance;
you shine
even though you are found
in rocky ground.
