The Ballad of Me

This body of flesh is mine
True as it be they are not connected.
Not in sync, my body and mind
Just barely they are connected by loose vine.
For when I smile my body smiles
And when my body smiles I cannot smile.
It's not the same shine
As if we are connected
But a smile is a smile
An upturned line
Be it real is the question
Are my feelings written true
I like to say im fine
But me in the inside decides lies
My body keeps smiling
And I can't shed its design
Please help me
Im crying
Im held together by twine
But soon it will snap
And the me you see will be long gone
Because my mind and body do not align
I want to smile
True and bright
But the thought in my head force me to disincline
One day there will be a grin on this face
A year, maybe five, a decade or so
I would lie but those times do confine
Honesty is important
Time weighs me down
By the time you read this I'll have reached the divine.
