Diamond Grace

Tearing down these walls I've built,
Never scared to climb inside,
You snuck up on my hiding heart,
And gave me so much pride.

A better friend, I could not find,
You take away all doubt,
That there is good out in the world,
And love does not burn out.

I won't forget the day we met,
Lost amid the crowd,
The chaos of our younger years,
Everything we vowed.

No longer just some outcasts,
Freaks that roamed the halls,
No longer lost in lonely,
Catching sadness as it falls.

A diamond grace within the sand,
That time cannot wear down,
A jewel within my crown of thorns,
My comfort when I drown.
