Life is a Song

By Ann Weathers

Life has background music,
Only you can hear it,
It plays along,
When the going gets hard,
Sad songs write themself inside your head,
Singing outloud,
You shed a tear,
You wipe it away,
Very quickly,
Whispering,
No more,
It's not right,
Forget it,
Lay your head down,
Clearing your mind,
Emptiness fills it.

-This poem is dedicated to people that
have nothing to look forward to everyday.
