A Poetry Note to Dry My Tear

How multiple sclerosis gave me strength and became my best friend through music.
Through suffering, I have looked my dream in the face and found music and poetry, the magic world of fantasy. With MS, I have discovered the beauty of life

Music
is my soul’s world.
I close my eyes and
a thousand music notes
accompany my thoughts
flying far away
like a seagull
baring its
freedom.
Those wings take it
into the horizon,
and it is free.
I see the waves of the sea
breaking onto the rocks,
I see the sunset
colour the world red,
a world turning
in endless spaces
of the Universe,
a world that dies
if you don’t listen to its
soul.
Nature is the soul
of the world.Its colours, its sound
is music.
The breath of the wind,
of the sea, of a stream
is music.
The weeping of a child
is music.
Listen to it,
you will be able to
understand
even its thoughts,
and you will learn to love
the music that is
inside and outside
of us.
A key is dropped from
someone’s hand
because they might be looking for you to open
their soul
and understand.
