Musical Notes

When things get rough Music takes me away Whether, notes fall with tears Or melodies relax me, I am released from all That overwhelms me The music carries me, When burdens are too heavy The songs peel away layers of pain I travel to the place, music takes me As I listen, the pain lessens My heart a little lighter My mind a little clearer My soul filled with air In this life I breathe I can move on with strength To do what I must do I look back on my footprints Impressions of musical notes Are left shining on my path in life For every step, music led my way For every breathe I took, With each tune I heard For every tear I cried that healed me I am alive, with every song to be heard Heidi Sands 6/10/18

Very nice, Heidi. Me too; I love music but when I'm down I need to hear happy, crazy dance music. I love your line, "...my heart a little lighter..." So true. Congrats on POTD for this very inspiring poem.
