Pearl

This pearl buried in me
Is mine and only mine
Inside it spins my blood
and within it lay little pieces of my own spine
Not even your monstruous ego can even try
To get near it
Or even steal it from the nest
Where it's safe and fine

This pearl buried in me
Many tried to get to it
But none ever had any success
Not even with all the rest and sleep in the world
I assure you, reach it you will not
For it is mine and only mine
As the rivers of blood through my own veins
and the little pieces that built up
my own spine

I'll scream it out
Loud and clear
As big as you want to be
You'll never reach it
You'll never reach it

And if this jewel receives any praise
It is my praise and only mine
The fire you try to show
It won't last any time
Without my sparkling pearl
Only mine
So there's no need in trying
To possess what can't be reached
But still you try and try
Keep practicing the game of insist

Until I scream it out
My sounds loud and clear
As big as you want to be
It will be high up in the sky,
for all to see
You'll never reach it
You'll never reach it

Never tired, I'll never sleep
My only pearl I'll forever keep
You'll never reach it

This jewel sown in me
Mine and only mine
no matter how brightly colored it can shine
As the hot red blood running
throughout my veins
And each bony part
of this solid spine.
