The sounds


Who am I?

Who am I without the sounds of music?

The sounds that sooth my soul when its distressed

The sounds I listen to when im simply getting dressed

The sounds that caress my ears before I slumber

The sounds I hear when I hug my pillow for comfort

The sounds of music whisper to me deep inside when in sorrow

The sounds of music scream to me when arrows pierce my heart with joy and happiness

Oh,The sounds I hear when I am winning like a champion

Or when I feel like I am as strong as a Stallion

I wish you knew how much I adore the sounds of music

Whether it is vibrant rock or sultry rhythm and blues

I embrace all the mainstream tunes including the underground ones too.

The upbeat vibrance I get from Hip-hop or the sassy vibes I get from Pop

These are the sounds that keep me going so that I'll never stop. 

The sounds that will never let me down and keep me pushing towards the top.

These are the sounds I will listen to when I am walking up the stage for graduation

The sounds that will give me sensation.

I have yet to realize my identity without these sound

so I ask again

Who am I?

Who am I without the sounds of music?
