Here's the thing. I love you. As far as loving another human goes, I seem love you uniquely. I think I fell in love with you the first day we met, without realizing it myself how far fetched it really is, at least it's turning out to be. My life so far seems to have been spent working in a coal mine. Hazy atmosphere full of junk air, people with headlamps only seeing what's in front of them due to the excessive darkness. Not a kind setting for someone who yearns some form of freedom, oxygen and life, and even those ideas are greatly overshadowed in the very essence of my being which yearns for love.
Compassion is in my nature, I wouldn't turn down anyone who comes to me for help, though sometimes I'm too blind to see who needs help around me so that I could go to them. But here I am, working away at this coal mine hoping to strike into a pathway that leads me to heaven, leads me to the ultimate, Love. Then I found you. A small diamond, it's so rough it's not worth much uncut, but it's the most beautiful thing I've ever come across this plane. Formed under intense pressure you've gained a unique form to my eyes. And turns out diamonds are known to be stubborn, definitely a lot more stubborn than stones, probably because they're made to survive.
Now you didn't have a headlamp, you carry around your lantern and it is clearly a lot heavier because you have to keep it lowered down for most of the time, so perhaps you don't see as many faces as some do. But I like it, I like that you're old fashioned, I've always been fascinated with simplicity, not to say that you're simple. To me you're so so much more than the definition that simple conveys, and it has nothing to do with intelligence, because you have that in spades and I openly say that it more than rivals, even tops mine(and I like to consider myself witty, in my arrogance). It also has nothing to do with how you look like on the outside. Being honest I'd like to say that yeah, you're rough around the edges at some points. But it's those edges that give you so much uniqueness and define you in a way that I simply can not discredit or not be allured by. All of what I see, what I hear and what I think about you seems to come to a standstill every time I look you in the eyes. Because what I see there is simply the most beautiful sense of love that I've ever come across. My soul, my very being simply wants to escape my body just to hug that light, not to consume it, but to feel the warmth, to give my own essence my own love back, just to simply take your hand and see how much of the world is it possible to conquer with simple acts of kindness,compassion and love at a time.
Diamonds are known to be stubborn. What I really want to do is give you your freedom, but it's difficult to me because I don't want to let you go, but for you it doesn't seem to matter, a diamond shines the same in a coal mine, a store, in someones pocket or on someones ring. But what I'm trying to tell you is that I don't want you to be shaped by a gemcutter. The thing is, I love you, and I simply don't know why and I have no idea on how to proceed, I let you go once already, but I found you again. I tried to find the likeness in other gems, but it just doesn't click. For me, it's hopeless, because I see you being cut and I see how you get hurt because of it, and it kills me.
