someday
i'll translate you
into music
embodied in a note,
a phrase,
a lyric, a voice
my voice.
I will slip you into
the ears of those who still listen.
I will keep you
on the tip of my tongue,
so that you'll always have somewhere to dance.
stay just a while longer.
let me be your witness,
so that i may know you.
let me be your arbiter,
so that i may push you,
if ever so gently,
toward where your feet won't carry you.
someday i'll translate you into music
