My Gem
i see you
my pretty little Gem
so hurt and confused
not knowing how much love you have
how much you've collected
how much you have to share
i see you
shuffling through the halls
scared to glance up
at the swarm of faces
who silently scream their judgments
but those people don't matter, my Gem
they don't see your beauty
but i do
i see you
i see your success and your failure
your joys and your pains
and i am here
i won't leave you, my Gem
you sparkle and shine for the world
and none of them can see
akk the wonderful things you do
they only see you lack-luster
but i see you glimmer
my pretty little Gem
