Do you really need the music?

I suppose I used to be good at singing.
I was good at a lot of things-
but if you are here now, I'm the fog
in the trees...the sound it brings.

That's all you will hear.

I'm a hollow echo on a winter morn
when the grass is crisp with frost,
and scientifically, it all makes sense,
but somehow I don't, I'm lost.

And I don't see why you're here.

Fog disperses, frost melts into dew
when the sun gets up and about,
stay if you don't need the music
because I just can't pull it out.

~January 2006~

Some need music...
some do not.

Right now?

Just a certain kind
of music will do me...

but the understanding
of the not in kind need

is breaking my heart for you.

So, I am sending

If your voice is a fog, then let the fog ring out loudly.

You have a style that no fog could ever dampen.
