Five Lines, Four Spaces


I believe in life's musical staff

I believe that life is one beautiful composed piece

The stages of life are the lines and spaces of the musical staff

As the music plays on

Small notes take their time as they move up and down the staff

Just as I’ve traveled through life

There are always high notes and low notes

Sometimes they are quite sudden

But in the end, it always leads to a beautiful masterpiece.

I have brought people into my life and have joined their journey

Through highs and lows

We make beautiful harmonies together

Occasionally there are times when we clash

Sometimes they end up more beautiful than ever expected

Without music life would be flat
