Joyce Kilmer wrote a poem that begins "I think that I shall never see a poem lively as a tree. A tree who's hungry mouth is pressed against the Earth's sweet flowing breast..." You can google the first line and get the whole poem. It's well known to the older generations, but probably not to folks your age. It's so full of metaphors that I thought it would be easy to turn into a video when I re-read it.

I heartily agree with David M. and his recommendation of
Joyce Kimers "Trees"----- and would only add that
it was put to music because my Irish mother taught it
to me and I sang it in several small Concerts when I was
young---also heard it sung by Paul Robeson and John
Charles Thomas in later years---- It is a beautiful song
that enhances the wonderful emotions of the poem !
Joyce Kilmer (a man) was a member of the Fighting
Irish Brigade and was killed in action in WW1 ---his
poetry appeared in Magazines and Poetyry Anthologies--

Do something from the heart! That always works. as for as music that depends on the taste of music you like and what you want others to per tray you as. everyone has something to offer from life. you have to found out what you want others to know about you. HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF!! you can do this.

if you want something nobody else can recognise, how about this:
The madding crowd, two souls alone
a look, a word, a kiss frisson
with kindled fire hearts darkness fled
and binding shackles quickly shed.
Softest skin and warmest heart
the hardest thing to stay apart,
to meld as one with no regret
the giver, given, learns to get.
So tarry lover, in your quest
and as you slumber, skin caressed,
I'll lay my head upon your breast,
embraced, embracing, shall I rest.
