The Crown I Wear Is My Voice

the crown i wear is my voice

no greater skill have i than

an ear for music and a voice to sing

i love to create complex harmonies

i love to snap and clap to keep the beat

i love to let the tone move with the dynamics

i love to express the emotion of the song's story in the very way i sing 

i love to mix and match different styles of singing to songs that never bore that style

i love to add me into the song

"youthful color" my sister and i would call it

the fancy flares and fluffy flutters of our voices up and down the scales

filling the sound in between notes with yet more sound

i love the feeling of filling my lungs with air

and allowing a strong, clear and beautiful sound escape between my lips

my voice makes me feel flawless

undefined by appearance, actions, or words

but defined by the sound that pours forth from my mouth
