Rock

An evocative woman-centric poem, by Eliza, exclusively for Different Truths.

She flashed in your life
like a point from everyday life.
Why did you delude her?
You pretended to be a diamond,
when you’re just a shard
that hurts.

You’re not a diamond,
an amber,
not even a shard.
You’re a rock!

(Translated by Artur Komoter)
