The Lost Diamond

For someone so beautiful, you died so young
Didn't give a moments notice and you're life had just begun
I remember the things that you would do in the past
Mutilate your body with a bloody knifes' slash
You would write dark poetry that only few could read
An outward way angel that felt like the bad seed
I know your reasons for taking your life, for what's been done
But that doesn't make me feel better, you left behind a son
Your father could've kept his hands to himself, I know he's a bastard
And his daughters heart, your heart, he twisted and shattered
I tried to be there for you, tried to console your shame
I still remember the nights that i would cry with you in the rain
And now you're gone, one less diamond to shine in this world of sorrow
I will always love and miss you, holding onto your memory like there's no tomorrow
