A medium for this spirit... I see now through her eyes... reliving a moment I'd not lived at all Captured completely...she sings to me sweetly A moment she shows me her soul She smiles back knowing--the melody flowing pockets the heart that she stole

Wow...another beautiful, brilliant poem. I'm jealous, you're such a talented poet. This one in particular strikes a chord (hehe) because I know what its like to love a musician...*cue nostalgic moment* Hehe, anyway, as I was saying, this poem shows such beautiful use of language and contains the perfect balance of sentiment..I love it :D
