Music and Me

Music is my escape
When the world
Hits me with all it has
I regroup sitting among melodies

There are songs of joy
Filling me with exultation
Replacing the doubt
That tries to pull me under

Dance rhythms cause my
Body to feel and move
Freedom vibrations of
Celebration coursing through me

It is language universal
I don’t have to understand
The words to appreciate
The interpretation my body feels

Music is sustenance for my soul
Notes feed my imagination
Giving me strength to dream
To believe I am a fountain of possibility
