Diamond stone, you’ve been on my mind
Yet apparently so very hard to find
I have looked for you upon peaks high
Still, your sight is still not nigh.
They keep telling me to try harder
Walk longer, run farther
Search deeper, seek wider
Spot yonder, listen clearer.
Well, all that I have done and more
Put in more than I could know
Press on even when it’s no longer, no more
Amazingly, and for some reason, I keep holding on.
I see life when you’re beside me
Unspeakable bliss, I can’t stop imagining
Such mind’s peace and ease
Nothing comes closer to that feeling.
My dreams would be reality
My reality would be like no futurity
I’d be living for today and not any other
I’d have found my immaculate other!
Tell me, diamond stone, you can see it too
How lovely it would be, me and you
Tell me you feel the sway of the breeze so cool
How deep we are in the ocean blue.
But you quickly fade away
'No, not yet, child’ you say
But why do I feel, for u, I am prime
Why do you say it isn’t time?
I have given all I could
Sometimes even traded places with the fool
My tank empty was once so full
I have no more from me to pool.
I’m weary, can’t wait for the night
When I shall meet you in the starry light
See you and suddenly be all right
Until when I wake and you still remain in the night.
