Music by CheleMK
What began as a love of writing and poetry soon found its way into music.
Through my original lyrics, creativity became melodies, emotions became songs, and stories found another way to be heard.
Some songs are inspired by specific people or moments, while others simply emerge from imagination, feeling, and the joy of creating.
Each song carries a little piece of my heart.

Paint Me
Behind the Song
There is so much more to a person than the face that is presented to the world.
Beyond appearances are the experiences, emotions, and quiet truths that make us who we are.
“Paint Me” is about knowing who I truly am.
PAINT ME
Lyrics by CheleMK
[Verse 1]
The picture unfolds in brushstrokes and oils
A flower bud opens through hours of toil
I sit very still while you search for my soul
But how could you ever paint me whole?
[Chorus]
A flower is a flower
You can paint its shell
Its fragrance can’t be captured
For the colors will never tell
[Verse 2]
My bloom may look different
If you paint me twice
But if you want my essence
It comes at a price
[Chorus]
A flower is a flower
You can paint its shell
Its fragrance can’t be captured
For the colors will never tell
[Outro]
For I am me
More than your eyes can see
You may capture my colors bold
But could you paint the whole of my soul?

Written in the Stars
Behind the Song
Written in the Stars began as a poem inspired by the practice of manifestation. It was written to encourage people to visualize their dreams, believe in their possibilities, and imagine their thoughts becoming reality.
Sometimes, the first step toward making a dream come true is allowing ourselves to see it.
Written in the Stars
Lyrics by CheleMK
Verse 1
One day I will find a love worth life itself
The kind that takes my breath away
One moment will bind two hearts together
And all else fades, no more yesterdays
Verse 2
Tomorrow brings hope and quiet faith
That someone waits somewhere for me
A man sincere with dreams and visions
Of a life written in the stars, meant to be
Chorus
Written in the stars, waiting in my dreams
Somewhere our hearts will meet
Maybe it sounds impossible
But love like this can be
Bridge
A future of rainbows, hearts beating wildly
Perhaps unrealistic to some it seems
But thoughts become real and miracles appear
For I have seen him there inside my dreams
Final Chorus
Written in the stars, I feel it in my heart
Even when the night seems far
For somewhere in this world tonight
Our love is written in the stars

Written Into My Heart 💙
Behind the Song
Some bonds are formed by a love so deep that words can barely express them.
Written Into My Heart is a song dedicated to my son, Kris, who brought a love into my life unlike anything I had ever known.
From the moment I held him in my arms, he became a part of my heart, a part of my world, and one of the greatest blessings of my life.
Some stories of love are written in books. Ours was written into my heart.
Written Into My Heart
Lyrics by CheleMK
Chorus
Welcome little one, our lives have just begun
Dreams of you appeared before the time had come
The years will pass, and one day you will truly see
That life can’t be planned, for what is meant will be.
Verse 1
The first door closed, and I couldn’t see why,
But it left the key for the day you arrived.
What felt like loss was making room,
For the little boy who would come so soon.
Verse 2
A date of fate, a place I knew,
Old family threads were pulling through.
I couldn’t see the whole design,
But somehow your road was crossing mine.
Verse 3
We had no room prepared, no little clothes in rows,
Just one tiny outfit and a love that somehow knows.
A white cradle waited with a ribbon tied in blue,
And somehow overnight, our whole world made room for you.
Bridge
I gave you my love,
You gave me my name—Mom.
Welcome little one, our lives have just begun
Dreams of you appeared before the time had come
The years will pass, and one day you will truly see
That life can’t be planned, but you were meant for me.

Hear My Prayer
Behind the Song
This song began as a poem written by my mother, Peggy, for my father, Mickey. Their love story began at just fourteen years old—it was love at first sight.
After my mother passed, I discovered a copy of her poem tucked away in her desk. I knew I wanted to do something special with her words.
And so, years later, I found a way to co-create with my mother, bringing her beautiful expression of love to life through music.
“She wrote for love, I create to remember.”

🎵 Hear My Prayer…
Lyrics by Peggy Melchionne

“She wrote for love, I create to remember”
Verse 1
Answer my hopeless prayer —
That someday I your child will bear.
I’ve loved you so, and for so long…
Tell me if I’ve done you wrong.
Verse 2
No one else could take your place,
No arms could match your warm embrace.
But if you cannot feel this too,
Please don’t let me cry… or make me blue.
Pre-Chorus
For God has said that hearts are paired…
Oh my dearest — hear my prayer.
Chorus
I pray for a miracle,
A love that’s heaven sent,
If hearts are truly promised,
Then surely we were meant.

The Love That Was Never Here
Behind the Song
Some dreams begin long before we understand what love truly means.
A Love That Was Never Here was born from the imagination of a young girl who dreamed of romance, tenderness, and a love she had yet to know.
My fairytale dreams got the best of me in this song, taking me from the depths of longing to the heights of a love that existed only in my imagination.
Years later, those childhood dreams found their way into words and music, giving voice to the woman who never stopped dreaming.
The Love That Was Never Here
Lyrics by CheleMK
[Verse 1]
How can I see you clearly when I haven’t seen your face
Or hold you close and never feel your warm embrace
How can I feel the love that was never truly there
If I imagined you, my dreams are crystal clear
[Chorus]
It’s a love affair not comparable to others
Warm summer nights that cradle the desires of lovers
How can I feel the passion in the air
Midnight illusions shimmer everywhere
[Verse 2]
Thoughts come and go with sadness you will never know
What dreamers feel in the night under starlit glow
I reach for you in silence and in fear
But how can I feel a love that was never here
[Bridge]
I close my eyes and let my heart dream
Of a love I know will never be seen
Dreams grace my nights with a whispered face
That only mornings have the power to erase
[Final Chorus]
It’s a love affair not comparable to others
Warm summer nights that cradle the desires of lovers
How can I feel the passion in the air
Midnight illusions shimmer everywhere
[Outro]
Why does this yearning linger through the years
How can I miss a love that was never here

The Dance
Behind the Song
The Dance is about more than two people moving to the rhythm of music. It’s about an intimate, unspoken connection shared in a moment when the rest of the world seems to disappear.
For those few minutes, two hearts move together, caught in the tenderness of something that feels like love. Yet beneath the beauty of the moment lies a quiet uncertainty… he loves me, he loves me not.
No promises are made, and no answers are given. They simply surrender to the music and the feelings it brings.
But when the final note fades, the dance ends, and so does the connection.
Sometimes the most beautiful moments are the ones we know we cannot hold on to.
THE DANCE
Lyrics by CheleMK
Verse 1
Dance with me,
hold me close —
just one more time
before we say what we both know.
Feel my heart,
it’s tender and true.
Stay in this moment —
let it hold us, me and you.
Verse 2
Tell me what you’re feeling —
is it love or just the sound?
When the rhythm pulls us closer,
we don’t question what we’ve found.
Like dancers in the music,
moving perfectly in time…
But when the song falls silent,
your hands won’t still be mine.
Pre-Chorus
Pluck the flower petals —
he loves me, he loves me not.
We dance like we’re certain
of something we’re not.
Chorus
I don’t want to lose
what this music makes us feel.
Two hearts moving as one
in a rhythm that feels so real.
But if the music fades
and the song can’t carry us on,
The dance falls silent…
and our love
comes undone

🎵 Listen to: Embers in the Rhythm
Behind the Song — Embers in the Rhythm
Some songs begin with a story already in mind. Others reveal their meaning as they are written.
Embers in the Rhythm unfolded as I created it. The music took on a slow, seductive rhythm, drawing me deeper into the story.
What began with the image of a little rabbit wandering down a rabbit hole gradually became a metaphor for losing yourself in passion, surrendering to its irresistible pull.
But even the deepest rabbit holes have a way out, and eventually, the little rabbit found its way back.

Behind the Song — Without a Trace
Sometimes inspiration begins with a single image.
An image posted by an Israeli artist caught my attention. I saw a woman walking away, gathering the pieces of herself along the way.
That image inspired Without a Trace, a song about finding the strength to leave, collecting what was lost, and becoming whole again.
I hadn’t intended to write a country song, but no matter what musical direction I suggested, the music insisted on going country!
Sometimes a song chooses its own path.
