her song

i heard her sing
a melody so sweet it synchronized with birds on a bright summers day
i heard her sing, along the way her sweet voice
lingered in my mind and was twisted in the fibers on my being
her song penetrated my soul with each note she sang
she captured me with her story
when she raised her voice with the joy of the words
and lowered herself to show her sadness
her song penetrated my soul with each note she sang
her song echoed in the depths of my heart
bringing tears to the forefront of this cold exterior
i couldn't control the emotions
as she sang her last note
the tears flowed as if they reacted in kindness to her song
my knees controlled themselves as they raised
while my voice screamed anchor
anchor i said anchor
i heard her sing
she took me on a journey that transformed my existence
i heard her sing
