THE SONG INSIDE ME

The song inside me cannot die
Though rigid bars have made it try
The small thin voice will not be still
Through storm and ashes, sing it will

I thought that I could push it far
And send it to where longings are
But oft I hear its lilting voice
It pulls my ear, I have no choice

And to myself I must be true
My muse, my love, I follow you.
