To Lift My Spirits

to be alone

without friends

without family

without life

there is little that i would require

despite this internal desolation

there is but one thing

that would comfort my isolation

what is life

what is living

without music

without song?

music:

that poetry

put with simple sounds

making an orchestra

out of the silence

with crescendos:

from pianissimo

to fortissimo

with simple common times

partnered with the

pentatonic scale

a symphony is born

without music

life is plain

boring

without reason

to be alone

without friends

without family

without life

i would find simple comfort

in knowing

i always have music to lift my spirits
