Music Is My Life

Music Is My Life

A Poem by That_Guy
"

Music is my more kind side. Soothes the savage beast

"
Plucking a string or strumming a chord,
This is what you'll hear when I am bored.
Music itself has become my life,
Singing my job, and performing my wife.

Finding the right note can be easy at times,
Unlike choosing the right words while making it rhyme.
Feel the rhythm and don't force the tune,
Inspiration will come by the light of the moon.

What triggers my mind to want to create?
Was I born this way, is this my fate?
A noise I hear or a sight I see,
The world itself inspires me.

There is so much of me in my song
No missing key, no lyric wrong.
My masterpiece of melody,
Finally fulfilling my musical destiny.

Nicely written, I find myself lost in the music itself.

couldn't agree more
great, again, and really captures the feelings of music. I often feel similure when I'm playing around with my guitar, coming up with random lyrics and random notes. you did a fantastic job :)

I love expressing myself through music
I loved the line, singing my job and performing my wife. So creative and perfect, the marriage of someone who is so touched by music that it becomes part of who they are, it is love. Great work here, I think you worded how those of us who have a passion for music feel. I enjoyed this.

I'm so glad you get it. Thank you
This is awesome! Martial arts and music do work hand in hand, you know. Same principles, same flow, same feeling.

I love the rhymes that are written in this poem. I also love the consistent rhythms and patterns that have been created. I took this as your own declaration of "music as your life", and thats amazing. I think that you could revise this more. I think there can more expanded between all four of those stanzas, like a big confrontation. Look through this and you'll probably see. :)
