THE SONG IN MY HEAD

 

The song in my head is loud, so loud I cannot speak.

This melody in my mind plays on and on, it won’t stop.

The lyrics I cannot understand, they are jumbled and vague.

 

The song in my head is familiar; I have heard it many times before.

Like a long forgotten ditty that is somehow now remembered.

Rhythmic contortions of notes, harmony, and a back beat surge forward.

 

Using my psyche as a fine tuned instrument, this song in my head makes me feel;

Makes me feel as I haven’t felt in a long, long time.

Placates the unrest that had captured my soul…soothes me, comforts me.

 

This song in my head is coming from the orchestra of life,

The universe is singing to me once again.

Like a special karaoke band, sent to me for a reason.

 

This song in my head now starts to control my actions, my thoughts.

I can now bellow out the meaning, expulse the demons of my past.

This song I must sing out loud, proud, and amongst the crowd.

 

This song in my head shall never again fall silent, ever ringing in my ears.

I cannot and will not let any stanza become muted again.

This song shall be my new anthem of life…sing it with me.
