Black Diamonds

   

You might see them ashes 

But these are some of the fragments

That belong to my heart

But refused to thump up anymore  

Giving up on drawing its breathes 

But you were mistaken when you said,

Those other black fragments are coal 

These are Carbonados

Who survived 

Over the crushing pressure of time 

And the temperature, melting to death 

And today, they are the strength of my heart

Embedded on its outer layer

Yet rooted deep in inner chambers 

So, Not every black you see is gaze averting 

Some get hooked to your sight for forever

You can always wish to have it 

But you can never pay to make it

Remember! 

Only a rarest soul can afford rare heart. 

And did you see

Between grey and black  

That spectacular view of blazing red?

These are the sparks 

Succeeded by fire 

And that fire is oxygen to my heart

Keeping it alive 

And making it warmer

So I can sow my dreams in it

And reap them when time comes! 

So now you see,

All that glitters might not be the gold,

But some Black is always meant to be hold 

All the flames don’t burn human down 

Some hold the burnt one 

And make them wear a crown 

All ashes are never meant to be swept 

They are the treasure of rebirth and renewal 

So the hope for Phoenix should always be kept!
