Neuma

A neume (; sometimes spelled neum) is the basic element of Western and Eastern systems of musical notation prior to the invention of five-line staff notation. The earliest neumes were inflective marks that indicated the general shape but not necessarily the exact notes or rhythms to be sung. Later developments included the use of heightened neumes that showed the relative pitches between neumes, and the creation of a four-line musical staff that identified particular pitches. Neumes do not generally indicate rhythm, but additional symbols were sometimes juxtaposed with neumes to indicate changes in articulation, duration, or tempo.

I guess the question on my mind is
Who am I supposed to be?
Who stands behind the mask
That you're telling me is me?
I recognise the voice
I'm familiar with the features
But did I have a choice to become one of the creatures
On this green earth?
Still searching for my home turn
Why do I have a heart if all I really am is dirt?
They say that words can't touch
But in reality they hurt
Especially the ones that I write
They say the highlight
Is living for the high life
But I'm searching for the Source
Like five mics
Still living in the twilight
The limelight's crepuscular
Rhyme pattern muscular
Ready to lift a soul
Stick my neck out like jugulars
Is the inner man Caligula?
Living out an acted role of human cinema?
Where the ruler reigns supreme
Guess the only question is
Is it you, or is it me?

Man at times like these 
I think about my life
Man's responsibilities
I think about my wife
Lord, I pray I never leave her
Pray I never let her down 
Becoming a deceiver
When the enemy taunts 
I laugh in his face
But seeing heroes fall from their heights
End up in disgrace
I realise, "There go I, except for your grace"
Refusing ever to settle for commonplace 
I know your call on my life
I'm finishing the race
And one day I'll stand before you
Peering in your face
See the beauty that I longer for
The object of my faith
But how long until that day comes?
Surviving off these bread crumbs
To feasting in your kingdom?
Am I there or do I succumb
To the tantalising, fantasising
Lust of the eyes
Compromising my identity?
Like walking through the trenches 
Searching for serenity
Be my canopy!

Be my canopy
When the sky's falling down
Be my canopy
