This isn't the best but here we go:

We are not so unlike gems

Those multisided ores

For each of us has many facets to our whole

A colorful mosaic of shining originality

Others make assumptions

Based on our color, or a single one of our facets

But we defy assumptions

Assumptions crumble and crack, and then you can see the many facets of our gems

We shine in all colors, sparkle in all shapes, shine even on the brightest, most scrutinizing light

We aren't perfect

We have flaws too

Don't try to use our flaws against us

For our flaws are supported by our whole

Don't choose to see only one part because the rest defy your expectations

No one meets all of your expectations

So why should we?

We are human, we are gems, we are beauties with many facets and we defy expectations

You've reached the end of published parts.
