Definition: Expresses the feelings/thoughts of the poet
Example:
Love Lyric
Guitar strings strummed
The drum sticks beating
And the vocalist singing

A love lyric to his beloved one
A love lyric for all star-crossed lovers
A love lyric to true love

Going falsetto
And three notes lower
His girlfriend in the front row
Lifts her hands up high in the air

As he sings a love lyric
While the band plays the notes

A love lyric to his beloved one
A love lyric for all star-crossed lovers
A love lyric to true love
