It Calls To Me

It calls to me 
sometimes ever so softly 
just a tickle in my ear 
or gently it whispers 
brings forth fresh tears 

other times not so subtle 
with full vibration pulse 
it comes alive 
my senses thrive 
shakes me to my very core 

then there are the times 
snuck up upon, without realize 
but sure enough, I find the source 
nameless notes that buzz and dance about my head 
I catch myself humming ever so quietly 
humming the overflow from within 

but no matter how it comes to me 
the call is always there 
in every fiber of my being 
from the tip of my toes to my very last hair 

music is a part of me 
one I could not live without 
for a life without song, 
without dance, without shout 
is no life I care to live 
or even talk about.
