Untitled(Precious)

I am a collector of beautiful things and I choose my words no differently
Fine art at it's finest so important significantly  
Some may say I'm hiding out in the open with how I'm going to write this here
I say no it's clear how I write about something I hold to my heart so near
Something that I treasure and hold so dear
It's enough to bring a grown man to tears
I told you earlier I collect beautiful things
I'm not talking precious stones and diamond rings
I'm talking something that's not superficial, it may not catch your eye
To me it was so beautiful and I could not just walk by
Of course the aesthetics are some of the most beautiful I've seen
But something makes me look closer, you know, get in between
I don't mean this in a negative way, I'm a respectful guy
I definitely wouldn't be mad though I'm also an honest guy
I've had many pieces of fine art before this
This one was special, something I could not miss
All of the other pieces I put in a gallery of my past
This new piece had an exhibit all it's own, contained in a glass that would last
This thing is harder than a diamond, worth more than gold
Softer than a feathery touch, a precious gem to behold
This thing is priceless and it's not for sale
No use in trying to steal it, I'll send you to hell
Sorry I got out of character while talking about something so heavenly
Forgive me the Lord's still working, I'm trying to become a better me
But back to the subject, I'm talking about God's Gift to the World
I can't think of a better name, it fits so perfect
This piece of art work can't be held in a frame and can't be given in a box
Won't see it in a jewelry store or museum so searching you should stop
I have the only one God ever made and it's just for me
And it's the most precious piece of art I've ever seen
