Music.A Poem by Anastasia
Music.
It's all around us. Echoing through malls, blasting from cars, or escaping from a neighbor's lips. Not a day goes by in which music doesn't play a role in those 24 hours. But do we ever stop and realize the tremendous impact it can make on us? One song, composed of a few notes, words, and instruments, presented by a statue of flesh. The elements are so simple and almost insignificant at times, but when they are merged together, can create anthems that change our entire being. It could bring a 3 minute flash of joy into one's life or it could tarnish their once optimistic mood. Music doesn't only have the power to feed the mind a sweet melody but also implants in someone the thought that they can keep fighting. The end is not now. They can push past the present obstructions and inherit the love they need. Those artists wrote those verses and choruses for a purpose. To help express feelings that words wouldn't dare try to define. To get you through that moment in which you question, would anyone even notice if I disappeared behind this curtain? That one lyric you hum could have helped someone make the choice of life or death. Words obtain the greatest abilities known to man. The next song you listen to reflect on how it has impacted you. Has it helped you crawl out of your pit of suffering, when you felt nonexistent and worthless? Has it been the soundtrack to a moment when you felt on top of the world? If so, listen to it again. Be thankful that it was there because how would you have changed if it wasn't? © 2013 AnastasiaAuthor's Note
