The music of life
in my veins
The beat
of my heart
The groove
of things to come
I will play my instrument well
I promise you that!
God, i will not
let you down
The life you give to me
every new day
How could i ever
repay
Not that i needed to
Not that you want me to
Not that you demand
anything at all
But me – yes! – i need
To make it all worthwhile
To breath your
air
To smell your
flowers
To see your
beauty
in all of your nature
But me – yes! – i need
To appreciate your
creatures
To gently touch
your creations
To caress
your wounded children
But me – yes! – i need
To give what
i have
To share what
i got
To repair what
i broke
To acknowledge what
i overlooked
To embrace what
i dismissed
And me – yes! yes! yes!
i need it mostly
To Love
Because
i guess
thats the way
to thank you
for life
