Robert Frost if I may ask...
For one favor pretty please
Nothing gold can stay, I know the rules
I live by the God-damn creed
But if I may ask of just one thing
Stay pretty gold, stay with me
My mother’s all better now, a golden recovery
The doctor diagnosed
To good health, to good health, lets clink Champaign glasses
Clink Clink to this golden toast
My father he smiles, can you believe it, he smiles
How many years has it been?
We even hug now, these golden hugs now
I’ve missed them in their long absence
My brothers soul, once tortured with mental illness
He has found the golden peace
Relaxed he is calm, Bipolar all gone
Breathing out pain, with a golden release
I now know who I am, love every inch of myself
Enjoying my vices and virtues
Golden girl, my brothers nick name for me
Stay happy, I’m here and I will never let anyone hurt you
So you see Robert Frost, it would simply be cruel
To rob us of our new found pleasure
We earned this gold, fair and square
So back off, let it be, find your own treasure
