Lasting Song

Forever a song caught in essence of time,

captured are words holding each precious line.

I'ts lasting effect plays a memorable theme,

that opens the mind to a place where you've been.

Eyes close as you listen, a total effect,

perfection of song makes it hard to reject.

As lyrical sound starts a tear waterfall,

it won't hold you back from a need to recall.

In silence you hum with its magical tune,

as melody lingers like scented perfume.

Soon memory dims like a flickering light,

but musical voice will hold on to you tight.

Like ripples that waver in showing no end,

a harmony lends, a hand while you mend.

As murmuring callings awaken your soul,

lasting songs echo will fill heart's deep hole.
