Melody

Music

It brings happiness

It causes me grief

It influences my soul

 

Experience

Changes the feelings

Changes the connection

Changes my view

 

A song I once found happy

Is now sad

A song I didn\'t connect to

I now do

 

I want to do other things

But then again I don\'t

So I sit here and listen

And think

 

I go for a walk

And I listen

Because the silence

I can\'t stand it

 

This is a silence

That let my thoughts spin uncontrollably

I let the music guide me

So that I don\'t go off track

 

It keeps me grounded

It gives me ideas 

It gives me lessons

It lets me feel things

 

I listen to the lyrics

and I write them on my hand

Like friendly reminders

of what I need to focus on
