    you can afford to swing in the wind
    when the fingers of morning open their eyes
    my face was late for its smile
    my eyes are drinking their own tears


    you can afford to look at the sun
    when the stunning colours of evening come
    my hands are nursing madness again
    the drawing fails once again tonight


    you can afford again and again
    just as always afford to tell yourself
    fall asleep little boy on ypur own shoulder
    fall asleep and you'll miss nothing

    Good stuff maruta, i like the contrast between you (the speaker anyways) and the boy. Also the images and general word usage were very nicely done. :)
