When Gold & Diamonds Shine

When I fall apart I’ll be broken
When I’m silent no words spoken
When I need it, arrives a token
When I awake, I’ll be awoken

When I crumble I’ll be rubble
When I take a pin I’ll burst my bubble
When I try too hard there’s always trouble
When I’m single, I won’t see double

Now your gone, I shall weep
When I can talk it will be deep
When I’m tired I’ll count sheep
When I let go everything will seep

When I’m feeling stronger
There’s a chance I’ll live longer

When I’m waiting, I’ll linger
When accused, pointed finger

When I’m careful, I’m gingerly
When I’m hurt, injury

When I am lost
At all cost
I’ll thaw from this frost

When I shine, glossed
When I clean teeth, flossed
When I sit in meditation, legs crossed
When I master myself, bossed

When I dig deep to mine
Gold & Diamonds shine
When I’m alone
I’ll hone
My skill
My thrill
Will over spill

When I’m inconsistent
I’ll remain persistent
When I’m undecided
When I’m unprovided
I’ll remain divided

When I sit on the fence
I’ll be tense
