So, this is originally a NaPo poem [I failed so horribly at that, by the way], but I wanted opinions on it. It was a rant-poem that I wrote directed at one of my friends, actually. Long story. xD Anyways, thoughts?
Yesterday was all circumstantial,
a fake flower in a mock-crystal vase,
flaunting reality with a confidence
better described as haughtiness.
What right does that piece of plastic have,
to tell a lilac branch to
"let loose and live a little?"
Today was all repititon,
a rhinestone studded bracelet,
sitting next to a diamond that decorates
a 14 karat gold ring.
That rhinestone suffers from an illness known
as Jealousy.
It was produced in a factory -
that diamond, at one point, was created from something
natural.
He'd take the lilacs, plain as they are,
over a painted-up piece of fluffed-up plastic.
Stop assuming He's a hypocrite.
He sees past that rhinestone's 'pity me!' act,
and loves the way the diamond shines,
just as He intended it to do.
Stop assuming He's left them all,
they deserted Him long before.
