Inspiration. I recieved some today. My friends and I were just hanging out, and we started sharing poetry. Weird huh? Check it out. This one is from Zipporah.

Blood Diamond

So many long for such a thing
Something that they themselves have never felt
They spend their whole lives searching for it
Hoping for it
And will settle for nothing else
Some hearts are lucky and burst with hot red blood
While others grow pale
Emptying bit by bit all that is inside
On the pursuit
This quest for the rare
To no avail
The simple man becomes a coal miner
Searching for the precious stone
Under rubble
Hidden deep down somewhere
It lies, the antidote for being alone
Little does he know
He will never find it
