Pressure

Deep in the earth’s embrace where darkness reigns
Lie secrets formed from ages past
Diamonds born in caverns unseen
Made by pressure, where no light gleams


In caverns deep, where silence lives
A melody of change slowly grows
Carbon atoms, humble and plain
Transform into treasures within their dark domain


Pressure mounts, heat is hot
And carbons form in the quietness
Pressed by earth’s relentless hand
Into jewels that define demand


In every dark cavern are stories untold
Of struggles endured as secrets are revealed
Every sparkle produced is a testament to the might
Of pressure, birthing beauty that shines bright


So, when life’s burden weighs you down
Think of sparkling diamonds
For in the caverns of the deep where pressure lies
Come gems of grace that make a heart rise.
