Diamonds in the Rough

As my bro Arvin is headed into bed, suddenly I had this tinge of composing a poem.  The 1st person that came into my mind.  No, not cat lover this time.  It's a person that's very special.  The very 1st Sabah lass that I befriended in the university ever since the 1st semester.  So, kind of took me 1 hours to wrote, just sit there in the dark....she inspires me.

<~Diamonds in the Rough~>

A description of honesty, I would like to describe your appearance.

A piece of indescribable beauty, your smile weakens.

I noticed your sincerity, gleaming from the distance of my recent prehistory.

My stories is been shared with you abruptly, unnoticed by my dimmed cognitive.

As I would like to illustrate you, my hearts shook with intensity.

Situated far underneath the rubble, shreds of black ore shimmered without attention.

Formed from various decomposition of human insanity, yet remained within the crowd of undiscovered integrity.

As far as others see it, the black ore is ignored for its outer identity,

Shunned from a bunch of precious artifacts dug out from the crude soil, undermined truth known as popularity,

Over the time endured, the value of the black mineral unnoticed grows enormously than those thats shoveled out in the moment of dire & dominating greed.

Your identity is like the black ore, may remains not furbished until the end of time.

Could the miners discover something as true & genuine as the black ore’s worth, remain undiscovered from the masses amidst humbly has the highest value of them all?

It’s what I equalize your presence, a gift from above that’s hard to recognize initially,

During the time that you appeared from out of nowhere, the strategic moment it symbolizes.

It’s of utmost value rather than those others, shining brightly among its kind but the value lessens as time progressed.

Back when we known each other, we were as filial & crude as the rocks from the underground.

Our values are significantly distinguished from our own types, but we always remain under the slumber of crowd spotlight.

We known each other day after day, as when true friends value only emerge when our emotions go underway.

Although we’re strangers by then, slowly we build the courage to diminish our inner awkwardness.

Still concealed from the mountains of rough sand known as human perception, you always been the guidance for me to shed my shell.

Congruence of people perception, clashes of inner emotion, crises of unperceptive opinions;

We judged it with our untarnished remaining pure sanity, distinguishing the facts from the fiction.

I was weak without any guidance, but you dared me out of my illusion & conscience.

With your unpolished value of confidence, you guided me out of convergence.

As I started to lead my own way of trust for myself, you laid static in the side await the moment where you would appear when I needed trust for support.

That’s how I judged you as a black ore that’s unpolished, anonymous albeit with the purest value & identity.

Your inner beauty that attract & stuns, whenever you slowly but forcefully allowed yourself to gleam among the crowd.

Progressing time, unraveled your blissful smile full of charisma and sincerity.

When the right goldsmith sort and assimilate you from the bunch of emeralds, rubies & amethyst that buyers earlier deem precious, your value comes to light.

As I would put you, your existence is similar to a diamond disguised as black ore in the dust.

Your inner beauty, outer identity, and firm integrity,

Become focused under the spotlight, shone mighty & highly within the authority.

I’m glad that with you around, the world becomes a place filled with wondrous mystery,

Always looking for something to form within your presence, because I know it won’t be a calamity,

You are a diamond, rough from the earlier hours, forming your value & identity alone without coming into contact with others’ path of righteousness,

Forming the mould of precise humanity, where the diamond value within you gleams strongly.

So wherever she is, she managed to land the special spot in my feeling.  A dear friend.
