Hidden Gem

A kindred spirit whose flame burns with the same body warming glow

Whose mind and intellect with the same current and torrent does flow

A lamp which is filled with the same swirling fuel set to ignite

Who by her words and feelings sets the soul, mind and body alight.

A true diamond uncovered in the most unlikeliest of places,

Whose every word sets the mind on unending chases,

To explore, to discover to unearth more of these written jewels

Whose bountiful fountain of written treasure is lost upon fools.

A pain so deep and searing to the core upon paper written,

The dark embrace of her fears so vivid as if by a beast you are bitten.

Yet beyond the pain and fear is a hope and light in the darkness,

A lighthouse in a storm to bring you in and a rainbow overhead witness.
