Pearls and Diamonds

You’ll always be my pearl

I’ll always be your diamond

You make me feel like the only girl in the world

And you will always be my man, then.

 

You’re soft and delicate, that’s why you’re my pearl

There’s no other man who’ll ever love me like you do in the entire world

You’re hard and tough on the outside

But when you come and sleep by my side

Your intimidating exterior unfurls

And you laugh in my lap while I run my hands through your soft curls

 

You see my resilience, my strength

I’m your diamond in the sky

You know my fortitude, I’m in it till the end

Your love makes me feel so high

Despite being so hard to crack

You make me take a step back

And unravel for your love

Because you show me a future we can both dream of

 

You soften me, I give you strength

I breathe out when you breath in

 

That’s why always, in the end,

You are my pearl,

And I will always and forever be

Your diamond.
