The Beat of My Heart

The Beat of My Heart

A Poem by Emily

Pressing play
Peace floods my ears
Through choruses and refrains
And my smile gets wider
As the tempo gets faster
Headbanging begins

My favorite bands speak to me
And bandage up my bleeding wounds
Singing softly words of wisdom
Soothing to my ears

When the going gets tough
I plug in my drug
When things go wrong
I drown myself in treble and bass
Music is my only escape
