Singers And Songwriters
Singers and songwriters go through depression.
They use it as a form of expression.
They deliver a powerful message from deep in their sole.
They search through emotions and depressing lows.
They do the same when feeling high.
Use it as a source for reaching the sky.
Their songs are meaningful and can touch your heart.
Sometimes the content can tear you apart.
This is part of their creative ability.
To touch your heart with great agility.
You can identify with each word of the song.
The end is coming. It won’t be long.
But, you can play it again and again.
Play it until it is something within.
There is a song in almost anything.
Oh, what joy and beauty a song can bring.
If you have the skill to put such things to song.
You are highly blessed and where you belong.
Never give up on such a gift.
Too many people need the lift.
A world without music is no world at all.
It is a living hell with nowhere to fall.
So, enjoy whatever music rocks your boat.
For me, singers and songwriters get my vote.
