My Song

Remember how you said,
Remember?
There’s music to our words.
Well I think I’ve forgotten
The song that goes along
With the monologue of my life.
I was thinking
You know,
I must be deaf;
Because I write what I hear,
And I can’t write a thing.
So please, play me some chords
And maybe
If I sing,
Sweet sound will return.
We can only try,
Try again.
Play the melody
So I can hear the lyrics
Which are.
