Can a silver cord bring you back?
To your hair, your luminescent messy headed shards of gold.
It moves in a coil
Like a snake, or a Slinky.
Quakes like your curls.

The beads are perched, one next to the other.
Perfect and sagging in a bend like a timeless smile
Like yours
Each bead a tooth, each
makes me smile back at you.

And the colors
The colors, the colors.
They are your moods, your rounded flaws.
So great and right.
If I could wear you every day, If I could wear you every day.

Yesterday I saw you fly
It was a bird but so am I
We flew so high I couldn't see
But who cares?
I'm as much a bird as bird could be.

You know,
The Brain and Heart will work as one.
And do you know what your life will become?
Pleasant, full, one balanced choice
After another, and another.
But what happens when they battle?
You best hope the heart will win.
Because when it begins? It will feed off your sins.
The guilt will fill you to the brim
Of things that you will never win
You can cry, yell,
You can go around and tell
All your friends
And they'll coax you and pretend
That it's okay, it's just a trend of your
Mind
And you will leave it all behind.
Just distract, interact.
Can't be so bad, just make a pact
With your Body, and forgive, remember the will to live.
Be nice to yourself, you've got flaws
Just like me, just like him.
Only...
We know how to swim.
So if you drown, just let it.
Just let it pull you down.
Because this is a monarch,
and the Mind always wins the crown.

Sublime
On time
But never late.
It hovers, waits
It relocates
It destroys the butterflies it creates.
Time will tell
What stays the same
But love's outcomes
Are never sane.
