By: Peter Cahill

I am the sound that you can see,
I wonder about the music that I free.
I hear what cannot be heard.
I see what cannot be see.
I want everybody to know who I am,
I am the one who will set your mind free.

I pretend to listen when I'm really not,
I feel your voice, in which you have sought.
I touch your hears, with a sound like no other,
I worry for what in my sound you will discover.
I cry not to the fear that has been put on by thee,
I am the one you will set your mind free.

I understand you concern,
I say that trust is not one won and only earned.
I dream that you will understand my plea,
I try to be all that I can be.
I hope that my songs can make you me,
For I am the one wou will leave your mind to see...

Nice job here, Peter... You've got a very nice introspective piece here - Lots of our poets have used this format here at Passions - I expect they'll like yours a lot..
