The Need


All I need in life

Are the chords and the notes

The clefts on the graph

That's what floats my boat. 

 

The songs speak to me 

And when I hear those sounds

I feel every word

They're swarming all around

 

When the day hits hard

And I'm not feeling the best

Music helps the most

It relieves all the stress

 

There are days where I've been challenged

E-mo-tion-al-ly

Wishing it all could end

What would have been the death of me

 

I sat in my room

On those dark and dreary days

And I put in my headphones 

And that special song played

 

The one that convinced me 

Not to end it all

It's because of music

That I wrote this poem at all
