Records

God placed my life on his record player    
He gently put the needle down    
So I could live my song    
My music started    
As I breathed in life    
At first each year around the record player    
Seemed slow and took forever    
The music was soft and light    
It was easy on the ears and enjoyable    
Life was fun  
And I was full of innocence  
As I got older each rotation seemed faster    
My speed changed in a heartbeat    
The years were a blur    
The music got louder as I got more reckless    
My music made no sense and had no meaning    
I didn't understand it    
Sometimes I swear my song skipped    
Maybe it was dejavu    
I don't know    
As my song got louder and more intense    
I made some questionable decisions    
But my song kept playing    
Now my song is further along    
My speed has slowed down    
The music again has softened    
And my tone has changed
I've learned to appreciate life    
And appreciate the chaos earlier in my song    
The chaos that helped my song become better    
Even though I've slowed down    
Each rotation seems faster and faster    
I don't know when my song ends    
But my music is still playing    
I've been fortunate to have my song    
Play with other songs    
Simultaneously    
A beautiful melody was created    
I hope this music lasts forever    
But I know my song will end    
All songs end    
Hopefully though my music impacts people    
Or a person    
Someone    
Anyone    
Their hearts their souls their minds    
Because if our songs can move people    
And everybody shares their music  
We can live in this amazing world together    
The way God intended    
With his collection of records    
A beautiful symphony
