There is no song within me

There is no song within me

There is no song within me
My heart no longer sings

I open myself to the world
To hear but dark, silenced strings

A storm surges
Brew the wild winds

The only path before me
An uncontrollable downward spin

The sovereign state of nothingness
Looms heavy on my soul

Forever burdened I carry the weight
And pretend it makes me whole

There is a song within you, I read it here every time I come.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
