Don't fall in love <br /> with a beautiful mind <br /> <br />The brilliant ones <br /> are always <br /> flyers <br /> <br />You cannot bind them <br />or tie them down <br /> <br />They must be able to <br /> soar with the <br /> angels <br />or else <br /> they will <br /> die <br /> <br />You cannot ask them to stay <br />It would be like clipping the wings of a <br /> butterfly <br /> <br />If you do fall in love <br /> with a beautiful mind <br /> <br />Accept your place <br /> on the ground <br /> <br />And love them as they <br /> dance with the clouds <br />and slide on rainbows <br /> <br />Love them as they <br /> leap from mountaintops <br />and skate the oceans <br /> <br /> as the dolphins scream <br />his name <br /> and they stars sing him <br />to sleep<br /><br />Lynzi Berner<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beautiful-mind/
