Pressure

All that glitters is not gold How could you be so cold? Your flowery bouquets of affection Just friendly, kind deception. You were my treasure, My fun 5”10 pleasure Now you’re just a painful reminder That Shiny ✨ MUST be put through a grinder. Tested by ice, water, wind and fire I know. I sound a little crazy, But now I just know better I mean.. if it’s priceless I’m after, aren’t diamonds made under pressure?
