Analysis of Song



When it comes
You know
Around you everything fades
Except this

Poetry in rhythm
That looks inward

But with connection comes life
Empowers, fulfills
Consumes all senses
Like a tranquil fog

Flows to the pallet
Evokes a memory

Races a mind
Visions and dreams

Hangs on a scent
Memories flood

Tones attach
To your core until

At last you reach out
And to you, it
Within and throughout
Like a wind breeze
You feel

It knows you
