The Depth of a Tune
There is depth in every tune composed,
no matter if your soul is open or heart closed-
an abyss of entangled metaphors brings hope,
lyrics of loss make me starve for affection.
O, I must admit…music has taught me to cope.
With each song sung I can make a connection-
as the rhythm of the meter brings a reflection.
Just as harmony balances out a melody,
a chorus of healing can become a remedy-
symphonies of solitude on a track written
brings an aria of beautiful sound to my ears.
Whether I am drowning in tears or smitten,
my favorite songs erase all my fears…
as I listen to my vinyl I keep for souvenirs.
