DIAMOND GIRL.

I’ve accepted that i have no willpower to suffer,

I’ve accepted that I do not appreciate when it feels hard,

I’m not drawn to struggle,

I do not like the word hustle,

It sounds so much like bustle and how much chaos it has to be —

Pour my heart into my hands and do the fun not the work,

Is that not how to keep a stable mind?

At my pace.

My talk falls on not so deaf ears…

Not so closed mouths,

Mouths that say; ‘just a little bit more’, ‘try a little harder’ —

Rude hands that push me in the direction that looks right,

I can do that too, perfectly well,

I’d just never say it.

Who says ‘I work well under pressure’?

Not delicate Diamonds, Not delicate me.
