When schizophrenia attempts to drown my son I spin a lifeline of love that can't be undone. And toss it to him when he starts slipping under for I'll not let him drown or be torn asunder. When I hold him, and he lays his head on my chest and says, "father, I can hear your heart”...it's the best. (Rhyme) June 18, 2018 When line SIX is a perfect FIX Silent One
