A Unique Jewel

Friendship is a jewel,
But sometimes the jewel is glass,
Tainting the jewel and making a crack.

Sometimes the jewel is pure,
And shines with such a beauty that it is mirrors,
Mirrors that copies and conforms to each other.

But sometimes the jewel is a picture,
A picture that has no motion and is only looking.

But most times inside there is a stage,
A stage with actors preforming not of themsleves,
Playing plays that have only one point,
To be accepted.

       -Anna 11/5/96
