Love Poem: Music of My Soul

Music of My Soul

The music of my soul
Is very intricate and whole
It’s like Beethoven’s first
And this music is never really rehearsed
New parts are written everyday
It’s in my heart forever and there it will stay
I’m and the conductor and the band
I control it with my emotions, a flick of the hand
There’s no sheet music for my song
And I can never play it wrong
My song isn’t written in a certain key
It ranges from F sharp to the flat key of B
The style changes from 2/4 to 4/4 to 3/4 to 6/8
I never miss a beat or come in too late
It’s written in treble and in bass
And it never changes the tempo’s pace
My heartsong is the music I love
I express it with my God-given talent from above
My music started when I was born
And when I was nine, it expressed it on a horn
My music hit the last chord when I die
Then my soul will dance and fly 
To the music made by me
