I Cried Today

Today I cried.
I cried because of a lullaby.
His voice winding and unwinding in my ears;
His beautiful voice was all I could hear.
He sounded happy.
He reminded me.
A time when I was once happy.
Many years ago, many.
I remember when I first played that song.
On piano. I got up and played along.
I sang along, I screamed along.
I tried to remember what went wrong.
But I don't know,
and I can't take it, no.
Today I cried.
I cried because of a lullaby
His voice embracing my soul, telling me "it's okay"
Drying my tears, calming my breath, keeping me safe.
I cried today.
But for now,I think its okay.
