I wrote a poem about the music that lifts me up, that keeps me going, and what it does when I turn it on. There's nothing more comforting than Adam's sad beautiful voice singing gently "Everything is gonna turn out just fine."  

I'm feeling down.
I put in earbuds.
I press play.
A gentle voice
Seeps into my ears,
Soothing my feelings
And calming my fears.
It surrounds me
Like a loving hug.
It envelopes me
Like a warm blanket.
It wisps around me sadly
Telling me
That I'm not alone.
Others suffer
Others cry
Others pretend
They're not about to die.
Others' hearts ache
Others' souls yearn
Others' minds spin
Their stomachs churn.
The sad lyrics
The sweet voice
The cheerful tune
Combine to create
A gentle embrace
And the words rebound
In my head
Whispering:
I go through it too,
But it'll turn around.
I go through it too,
But it'll all end.
I go through it too,
I promise,
You're not alone.
I go through it too.
And it's the voice of a friend.
