    What is in a song?

    The words we write

    and sounds we bleed

    like torrents of sleet

    cutting paths down soft

    and unsuspecting cheeks.

    The paths we create

    with emotions unchecked.

    With highs that scrape heaven’s floor

    and lows that burrow Earth’s core,

    we blaze on

    in inconsistent shadows of meaning

    and brightness

    and song.
