Ode To Melody
Met the girl on accident.
 I'd never seen her face before,
 but her soulful voice was passionate 
 weighed down my cataclysm by the score
 became we one, and gave life to a vision
 When she stops by, she cradles me
 while I rehearse her sounds in sleep,
 and muses at my side,
 but at times she veers away-
 knows other hands and hearts aside from mine-
 so I must steal her keys to make her stay,
 but she rarely ever keeps beside
 Melody has been around the world
 Influenced every walk of life
 because the world is hers
 but at least she cares enough to always write
 Her accidents of life though just suspenseful tension
 building up between each note she sends,
 every time I read them, I sympathize with her intent
 and despite the frequent silence she's the first to whom I cry
 but I tell nothing rather die than unveil my mistakes
 which leaves the freshest wound inside
 but when I lost my ground, she held my head and sang
 until the sting would dissipate
 I've played her on and on, and still she puts me high upon the ranks
 circulates my cipher, and I always give thanks 
 Her intuition bridges mind with something higher,
 immediate between my heart and calloused fingertips, 
 and her insight is my life's supplier
 So I listen, else I'd end my own existence
 cause no one else can give me guidance 
 I always give thanks
 when my eyes graph her movement
 that I was given sight and mind
 to dedicate myself to bring forth a motif of her name
 in place of the silence
 Melody, Melody...
 dancing freely in the city scene
 jazzy and dazzling
 melancholy blue 
 blooming classical tunes
 rock solid personality
 yes, in her atmosphere, it's all relative 
 to the haven in her heart I've found
 so in any moment, whether she's serene 
 or aggressive and loud, 
 I know she'd give me peace
 till the moment we both sound out
