Chromeheaded

When my cap was reflective

I called forth my worries

Watching as they traveled

Bounding over stillness



The word that came to meet me

It wasn't from another

It hadn't come for miles

Wasn't spoken by a lover



It was a sorry echo

Of my sorry state of mind

And it mocked me so for hours

For the seal I had applied



I apologized abruptly

But no one else had heard

So I sat for years in mourning

Of my final heart felt words



I petrified and began to fault

In my static hate for self

But here at my last, my flaws came clear

I stood to gather health



I recalled dust to mend my rifts

Remembering my flesh

Touch returned and I stood to reach

My fellows heading west



Distance was a passing joke

Determined as I was

I tore my roots from my bed

And I pursued their fuss



I followed close and broke to bits

To gather once again

For stones that bring me down to Earth

Will fix my shattered head



And chrome or not I will regain

The human touch I carried

No longer to reflect a pulse

But to relate to your despairing.
