Some songs I've listened to
Much more than others.

Tonight's song was about a woman
Who woke up to find
She was suffering from
Incurable disease.

It altered her perception so
She learned she had to trust others
Lest she fall to her death
Or be electrocuted
Or something like that.

She fell asleep again
And when she awoke
A different song was playing.
She found a golden scepter
Crusted with emeralds, amethyst,
And a single red ruby.

She felt like herself again
And more true.
Still, she ran on faith.

To find, when on the next morning
She awoke a third time
She was cured.
All her friends and family were there
They drank, celebrated, and ate cake.

The next song was playing
Faintly, yet to be fully heard.
And she wondered
"Who says dreams aren't real?"

Thanks for sharing this story, I really enjoyed it.
I too have a song which lingers in my mind... It captivates me in its story... For some reason unknown to me.
