The Secret To A Peaceful Sedation Poem by Sofia Papadimitri

How can I put music into words
and not condemn it into one meaning...
Or perhaps another...?

How could you see who I am
when your eyelids drop
and you look inside...?

You prefer weeping over melody
and noise is the only song
that makes an impression...

I cannot live in your world
walls at every reach
to protect my freedom

Instead prisoned here
between skies and horizons
I don't care to breathe...

Oh a choir of angels
heavenly sings on us
and we sleep along

I might toss and turn
eyes heavily shut
sweetly dozing off...

Turn the other side
another year is gone
'listen, and sing along...'
