DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH
Living her life all alone,
No one, no time, no place.
Many people in this world,
Easily forget her face.
She’s a diamond in the rough.
Plain and simple, quiet and shy,
Beauty and friendship she didn’t know.
Nobody has ever looked deep inside,
For inside her beauty did show.
She’s a diamond in the rough.
A hidden treasure – her heart of gold,
No one took time to see.
The simplicity of her face – a mask,
That hid a beauty queen.
She’s a diamond in the rough.
But not a word heard from her lips,
Not once did she complain.
She kept it deep within her,
She never showed the pain.
