Power of music

Joyce Macfee 1965 (Harrisburg)



Been up,
Went down,
Common ground
In you found.

Talking for hours,
Words vibrating
Through wires,
Until night expires.

Communicating
Through sound,
Sharing a love
Of music profound.

Touched without
A hand,
Only lyrics
From a band.

Filing the empty
Hole,
Content,
This bitter soul.

Remoteness
Caressed by
Melodies played,
Bringing forth
Day.

Aching in limbo,
Wanting more,
On me your
Song pour.

Ending,
Too fast,
Intensity,
Could not last.

As two souls
Drift away,
Joined forever
Music played.
