Music

I turn to music whenever I feel some heaviness in my heart
When nothing can stir my emotion
When I feel my heart is hardened and cold
When a sense of ennui engulf me

Music has a way of reaching deep into my soul
It has a way of evoking feelings inside me
It brings out all my emotions to the surface
It is a catharsis for my pent up feelings that I can't express in words

I find release in music
It helps me to unload the weight in my heart
As its soft and gentle melody awakens my humanness that feels so much

I feel more alive when I listen to music
Whatever I am feeling at the moment
Whether I'm happy or sad or empty
Music heals me of my pain

Sometimes I wonder why certain music affects me so deep
It tugs at my heartstrings
And makes my heart raw
It makes me cry silent tears on lonesome nights when I'm alone with just my thoughts and music for company
