As I sit here watching Purple Rain
Letting these tears roll down my cheeks
I think about what I am mourning
A musician, a lyrical genius
A man that has transcended generations
As I listen to his music I have never felt more inspired
This is what music does for the world
Even when we are at our saddest
When we feel we cannot get any lower
A beat, a melody, and a few words can lift us up
Music can make you travel back in time
It can make you heart soar to places you might have forgotten
As we go through the ups and downs of life we tend to forget to take time
To just sit and listen
Although this day is filled with sadness
I listen and have found the peace in shedding my tears

Music can open the window of the soul. We lost a genius when Prince died. Your writing I believe released the feelings most people had. Keep up the good work and keep sharing the mess you call a brain anytime
