To care so much you loose who you are in the process.
A stone put under humiliation and pressure
Either turns to diamond or dust.And sometimes it's both.
A nerd that loved reading and writing was handed a choice.
Diamond or dust.Diamond what what she had dreamed of, until she got it.
The love of stories being replaced by poisoning gossip.
Writing new worlds being consumed by the real one.
The first change was fast.
One day a dormant stone turned quickly into a diamond.The second change was slow, her mind and heart slowly turned to dust as she lost who she really was.
It took years, a heartbreak, and finding the things she use to love, for her to finally be who she really was.
A nerd that loved literature in a way only her words could understand.
