the song i want to listen to

The song I want to listen to
comes easily to mind-
a craving cheap to satisfy,
a catchy tune that rhymes.

The song I want to listen to,
I work hard to memorize-
each subtle sound and turn of phrase
a poet's paradise.

The song I want to listen to
sits with me when I'm low-
sings back my pain in a refrain
and rides the waves of woe.

The song I want to listen to
can lift my spirits high,
color me pink and bubbly-
a floating butterfly.

The song I want to listen to
is everything at once-
a friend for when I'm lonely
and a pal for having fun.

The song I want to listen to
I still have yet to find,
so in this silence that I feel
all I can do is write.
