Coal

I am coal

Dark and dirty

Crushed and hammered

Forgotten and worn

 

Coal goes through many bumps

Coal suffers many cracks

It goes through difficult stages

Heartbreaking

Exhaustion

Loneliness

 

But a coal turns into a diamond

Shiny

Beauty

Sought for

 

One day I’ll be a Diamond

I’ll look back on my time as a coal and smile

Say I survived

I persevered

But for now I am coal

 

I am coal

Dark and dirty

Crushed and hammered

Forgotten and worn

 

 

A long journey to come

But it’ll be worth it
