Swaying back and forth
Pondering the words
Smiling at the steady beat

These words are so powerful
Drawing me closer
Love, Hate, Sorrow, Fear

Beautiful melodies
Mixed with sturdy harmonies

Drifting between tables
The sound of clattering coffee cups
Beautiful Melodies
Carrying me to another world

Recently went to this little cafe' and heard a singer by the named Antje Duvekot. Her music really inspired this piece.
