Just imagine a world where feelings could be heard                           
Some people would argue that it’s absurd
If you could hear a heart beating
into a million pieces                                                               
What would it sound like?
Perhaps a lightning strike,
tears rolling down a cheek,
thunder echoing across a lake,
a butterfly softly emerging from a cocoon,
or the stars sparkling around the moon?
Just imagine a world where feelings could be heard
Some people would argue that it’s absurd
But listen closely with your heart
and realize
we all play a part
in this symphony
we call life.
