Music

Location

 

Music is the life of everything. 

For a depressed person, it is hope. 
For an energetic fellow, it is pure adrenaline. 
It calms, soothes, and moves with the simple power of the mind

Sound as sweet as honey
Is always worth more than money
Emotions prevail with pride
From the lover who dreams wide
To the sorrowful boy watching the tide
Even the deaf can feel the passion
Involved with the latest fashion

Always fickle to select the right genre
The mood is the key to it all 
A song once loved becomes insignificant
A new one comes into the presence
Leading with all it's strength until the day it falls
Forgotten and buried in the endless playlist
No longer hard to resist

Like medicine
Music stimulates and makes one feel better like never before
Our dependence grows larger day by day
Is it addiction?
Our minds continue to live in fiction
The imagination keeps feeding until it forms a depiction
We can't live without it for a moment. 
A sincere longing for it to be by my side
The gentle whispering into my ears
Let me know I am still alive
And forget my fears

Beginning with rock
Once considered the best on the block
Shrunk in size like a sock
Interests changed slowly
Upbeat tunes turned into prunes
Sadness took the throne
Stress followed when it's partner had grown
Nothing novel intrigued for a long time
What a mess I needed to suppress
Fortunately, Ambient music came to the rescue
Someone never thought to be helpful
Transformed into a friend
Bringing the worst to an end
Leaving nothing else to offend

Never can it be taken for granted
For the seed once planted
Will sprout into something enchanted
Whether it is the beat that pushes our tread
Or the lyrics that stalk our head
It is a pure creation
One never can dread
