The Diamond

From where we begin, to where we end.
Obstacles are overcome.
Problems are dealt with.
When after death, what does it all matter?


The Aureole.
It wants to you, it feeds off of you.
As you chase it, it leads you away.
When we find our diamond, we feel the most ecstatic.
The diamond is somewhere to be hidden, lurking underneath it all.
Where can we find it? Such elation is brings to one's life.

Like a man and his child, his pride and joy.
What he finds before his child.
His diamond.
The way a dog and his bone are.
The way a boy and his toy truck are.
The way the little girl and her doll from birth are.
Heart brings the truth.
Heart brings it all out.
Heart brings the diamond.
You do not believe you have heart when you really do.
Everyone has a bit in them.

The diamond was once read to me as a lost rock in the sea by a good friend.

I see my diamond, I just cannot reach for it yet.
