All I can Do is write about it

All I can Do is write about it

A Poem by Succubi
"

based on the song "All I can do is write about it" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, but with my own words. Read. I promise you'll enjoy it =)

There is a moment
When the music fades
And the lyrics
Slowly go away
 
There are moments
When all comes to clarity
And the guitar comes again
With a slow, droning melody
 
There is a moment
When there is darkness
And you hear Beethoven
As the keys of the piano lisp
 
There are moments
When the storm has calmed
And you hear the waves
Splashing against the haunted shores
 
There is a moment
Where there is nothing
But pure happiness
And you feel a rushing beat
Splashing through your heart
 
There are moments
When you are confused
You cannot understand anything
Because it is all new
 
And you find strength from within
Realizing that all you can really do
Is just write about it...
And play the lyrics out loud
 
Or conjure a story
Of symbolic history
It relieves the pain
And the misery
 
Nature itself
Creates music
Indulge in its
Priceless wealth
 
Appreciate the world
Every day because you never know
When it will all be taken away
Your voice, your mind, your freedom
Is the purest blessing of them all
 
And now I look
Sullen
But I will never be broken
Because I have realized
I can't change things
All I can do
I write about them
