Music

Music is life,

Energizing the mind

and relaxing one's self.

Words in which we live by

Speaking who we are

Testing everybody

The instruments of life,

playing important roles

in what we become.

Bad days,

they just melt away

at the sound of that special tune

And a soothing state of mind,

it's where one goes

when there's no where else to go.

Hey there, :)

You spoke nothing but truth with this piece of yours,
How music is important to an artist, especially while writing for me personally,
you portrayed that so wonderful. Some love pure silence, others function better with music... and I choose music, because I'm nothing witout it.... then I would feel half....
what a good piece! thank you for sharing.

Hello, I love music, write and play it. Guitar and keys and sing. Voicing the losies and the gains. Even with some of my more mornful pices, there it's a sertion relesse in it.
Maybe feel better when I've shared the feeling with some one elts. Maybe has to do with doing some thing with the feeling that make it easyer to live with.
But I liked your pice and I'll read some more, Take care, Joe

i live for and through music...i am from the sixties...grew up with rock and roll, starting in the 50's---

and there are so many songs that sing of our lives...the words written to reflect our loves our break-ups...

the beat of music is the beat of our life...

love this poem.

Thank you! :)

True. Nice and simple poem. But the first stanza, last line, would sound better as "one's self." Just a thought :)

I will see how it looks! Thank you for the input :)
