Robert L. Martin

The Journey

The Journey
 
Music is enriched with
Mystical Powers
A remedy prescribed to
Sweeten tasteless hours
 
My callous moods
They leave me empty
From nothing they swell
To two times twenty
 
The journey is lined
With velvet sounds
Casts my inhibitions
Way out of bounds
 
Music for what you did
I set myself free
Emancipation has become
A new born sea
 
To the pleasure of life
Music thou art
My staff and rod
