A Poem by Davidgeo
"

a white dwarf made of nothing but carbon is a really big diamond

"
survival through disaster
a trillion little ruins
shattered back together

reinvented again
by way of disaster
and again

survival under pressure
from a trillion little ruins
tortured into a trillion little places 

becoming something
stronger from the pressure

what turns things into treasure

from any trillion little ruins
it's the pressure that does shape us

perhaps diamonds last forever

maybe some things aren't forgotten

this is beautiful. A treasure is in my eyes some old person who has lived a long time is at peace with God and themself has lived the life they want to their finest capacity that they could do under the circumstnces, is happy in life, is thankful for what they have has no regrets lived life without hurting too many people, intentionally anyway, has lived a treasured life will look back on their life at their deaths moment and say wow thanks for all that now on to the next chapter of their life. thats a treasure i want not many can achieve, i loved your poem it shows the diamond cut fromthe stone, weathered in life to become a beautiful soul

God is the devil. It works together. We just don't know any better.

This is absolutely beautiful and empowering, but it still has the rugged feel of ordeals to it. I loved all of these lines individually and together you have created a masterpiece. 10/10. I love this.

Thanks Andrea. I'm happy you liked it.
I like this one but the overly positive outlook of the last line reminded me of Alphaville's song forever young. It is good overall just find the whole "love on the battlefield" tone of the piece made me think it was immature. But most of my poetry is porn in rhyme and meter so I really can't say I didn't like it.
