Music


Let music be the answer

Whether you’re happy

Angry

Or depressed

Let music be the answer

Music will always be by your side

Even when you’re lonely

And even when hope is lost

Sometimes music is all you need

Let music be your personal therapy

That heals your inner wounds

Extracting out negative thoughts

I know that’s what it did for me

There are songs that dig deep down my soul

Even though I never felt anything like it before

I can only imagine their pain

And listening to it, as it beats into my heart, is agonizing

Do you ever think

That sometimes music is too beautiful, it hurts?

Or is that just me?

What I love about music is how

It creates an alternate universe

A portal that sucks you in

Never wanting to leave

A fantasy land

Going to adventures

Enduring different kinds of experiences

Through the ups and downs

I always turn to music

It’s my escape

It silences the world

And my worries
