Pebble

Sometimes hot

Sometimes cold

Sometimes I shiver in the day

Sometimes I sweat in the night

Which of which

I do not know

But what I seek

Is what I do know

I seek for a pebble

So plain yet so special

So black yet so bright

So dull yet so lively

And when I throw it into the ocean

Back to me will the pebble be

And when I put it into poison

Corrode will it not

And when I crack it with a hammer

Unbreakable will the pebble stay

And when I throw it down onto the ground

No chips shall be seen

But when my tears drips upon its body

It shall shatter into pieces like broken glasses

For it feels what I feel

And shares the pain deep within me

And when I am down and lonely

It'll shine its brightess

For it knows I shall need a hug

But all it can do is illuminate through the dark

This pebble I seek

So plain yet so special

Is one I know I shall never have

For indeed, it is a treasure one shall have to seek.
