Buried in Music

Take me away,

Away from here.

And bury me alive

In loud and beautiful music.

 

Make me feel whole again,

Floating in the song.

May it carry me to peace,

And to you.

 

Why is my sense of self

lying shattered on the floor

Not tidied up

Since the last time.

 

I need not my own mind,

To justify myself.

I need only the justification

Of a friend.

 

For the soft care,

Like a beautiful chime,

To whisper through the music

And reach my heart.
