Just As I Am

Just As I Am
________________________________

 I'm a diamond in the rough,
 where as I'm pretty to look at,
 I have rough edges that cut deep
 Hold me under a mag glass to see my flaws
 see, I told you
 not what you thought was perfection, huh?
 So what shall you do with me now
 has my value to you dropped
 do I not mean as much
 are you embarrased to have me
 or will you hold me like the true gem I am
 like I was meant to be
 unpolished, shining in certain lights, broken
 perfectly imperfect
 and yet you love me anyways
  just as I am.
