"Lost Diamond"

...because she was Lost but never Found

By Flowetree Lokx (IG:@fl0wetree)Published 5 years ago 1 min read

She plays "Hides & Seek" in the mirror

Only that it's more like a Lost & Found thing

'Cause she's lost and not found

Unaware of her true beauty

Not realizing that she twinkles; shooting star... Diamond in the sky

Doesn't acknowledge her own worth

so

She paints her face and plays house, sailing a ship with a Relation person

She lays with him to find herself

...three months deep, he pulls out and leaves

Because...

She plays "Hide & Seek" in the mirror

Only to be more of a Lost & Found thing

'cause she is lost but has found

Not herself, but a package she didn't send away for yet paid the price after she swiped her V-Card

When she left herself in his sheets

She's lost in the darkness

Unaware that God is with her, so shall Her light shine through her

Luminating her heart to shine brighter but she's blinded by the Devil's veil

Placed on her, allowing her to see other...

Family doesn't want anything to do with her or the baggage she decided to carry

She hides but there's no seeking her

She's lost but will she ever be found?

Her mirror isn't helping her none

Takes matters into her own hands

Not tweeting the madness YET she kills two birds with one stone

Two beings connected by the one physical form

Three months, premature... three months, too soon

Never had a chance, both the seed and the carrier...

...drowned in her own blood

The crimson paints her new bathroom tiles

They both glisten with the radiance of pain, a Blood Diamond she is named

After taking on the life of pressures...

She played "Hide & Seek" in the mirror

Only it was more a Lost & Found thing

Because she was Lost but never Found.
