Songs Tell Stories
A song comes to mind
Myself, humming it, I find
The realities of life
Some of it, I put on a shelf
I protect myself from pain
This keeps me somewhat sane
The heartbreaks and rumours
The heartache and the emotional scars
I listen to my music loud
To drown out my cries and shouts
So many people sad
So many people going mad
The loneliness
Sometimes, no one confesses
The memories and treasures
Finding out one's pleasures
The silence of my heart
The tranquility of my healing starts
Hidden behind walls
No one hears my calls
Releasing my anxiety
Letting go, my heart is free
Writing helps me a lot
Reminding me of things I've forgot
People looking for answers
Their emotions start to stir
Does one laugh or cry?
To search for what they desire
Some people stay where they are
To where they are comfortable and secure
But are they happy?
Are they really? Answer truthfully
Tears have different meanings
Opening up, what are they revealing?
Everyone wants someone to talk to and share
Someone to hold, love, comfort and care
Funny, how life goes
Smoothly, everyone wants life to flow
Out of life, we want so much
Sometimes that, too can be a crutch
Music is a part of my life
It helps me deal with things, in a whole new light
What makes YOU feel better? To deal with things
What makes your heart sing?
