The power of Music

Candice Melrose 1987 (Port Elizabeth)

Free verse
Music is the words that cannot be spoken
Music is the emotions that cannot be shown
Music is the rhythm of the soul
Music is the feeling thats felt inside us

Music is the way we wanna sing
Music is the way we wanna dance
Music is the way we wanna be free
Music is the way we wanna love

Music ties us to that feeling
Music captivates our emotions
Music speaks to our hearts
Music is the author to those love notes

Music is power
Music is peace
Music is healing
Music is all these things and more
