Chisel your thoughts
one at a time,
observe each one
see them grow
as it takes some form
And when you find them
taking some shape
don’t stop,
chisel those thoughts again
Until you see the vibrant sparks
of your true self
in each one of those pearls,
for it is not how you look,
or what you wear,
but your thoughts define you
and your inner self’s flair
