The Song Within

By: Emy Blake

The lovely tune sounding brilliantly through the air

Wonderful feelings as the clear notes catch

The song shines and gleams, its rays golden and fair



As the words pour out, so does the sadness that lingers in the soul

The song is like a flower blooming after a long winter’s rest

Falling tears dry up and are replaced with smiles genuine and full



No danger can occur, nothing can go wrong

As long as the melody plays on and on

There is nothing like the beauty and wonder of the song



It is indescribable the way it spreads light

Warming the heart and filling it with joy

The feathery wings of the song grow as it takes flight



The lyrics and the notes brush through the wind

All sorrow is forgotten, all troubles left behind

Gentle and sweet, the song is a friend



The song continues on, the heart pours out emotions

It tells of freedom, and joy, of truth, and hope

Vast and calming, the song is like the emerald oceans



The song is a candle endlessly burning

Staying strong, the flame does not waver

It takes away the darkness, takes away the yearning



The melody ends the fear and helps the courage begin

It brings a sense of rightness

Because this song comes from within
