Music

An escape
From everyday triviality,
A way out --
Able to block out
The surrounding world.
Able to shut away
And hide.
Able to lock away
Secrets and lies.

Feel someone else's
Beats and feelings;
Listen to their pain
Or joy.

Let heart run
Rampant along
With the music.
Let it carry you
Far far away.
Let music be
An escape
From reality.
Life without
Finality.

Music is
A way
To seal a
Broken heart.
Fix something
That is broken
Apart.

Music is a balm,
Loud, sudden, or calm.
Music helps
People run
From everyday life;
Express their feelings,
And tell about strife.
Music gives
The unheard
A voice.
And gives others
A choice.

Music
makes everything relative
makes life clearer
and less extreme.

Listen to music
And slow down.
Don't let life
Swarm around
And zoom by.

Slow down
And live.
Settle and
Listen to Music.

Collect your thoughts
And then listen
To the beat
The pulse
And live again.

Music's Meaning

Music is life.
It flows, creates,
unwinds.
Music is the balm
to the soul;
a diamond buried
in a world of coal.
Music is a way of life,
a way to overcome
the ordeals of strife.
Music is meaning,
never demeaning.

Music lets people just
be themselves.
It allows them to let
go and just live.
Music gives them
a voice,
a choice,
and lets them rejoice
in being alive.

Music's Balm

Music is a force of nature. It sings, beats, breathes, and lives. It breathes life into a boring situation. It is a balm for an injured soul, a recluse for those who just need a break from everyday troubles, or its a passion, an addiction that is never appeased, a need to make others smile, make their hearts sing, and souls soar.
Without music, life would be sad and dull. There would be no flow, no natural, beautiful way of life. The energy would be sucked out of the planet. Somehow everything would seem more hollow and ghostly. There wouldn't be any pick-me-ups, refuges, or a way to voice an unheard opinion or feeling.
Music gives a voice to those usually denied one. It forces people to hear about other's views, opinions, problems, and way of life. It helps stretch people's view and perspective to life, opens their eyes to other's problems and makes them see that not everyone has it easy.
Music heals. It cures ailments unseen to the naked eye, the ones encasing a damaged soul. It sets people free from troubling situations, gives them an escape, a place where they can go and hear themselves think and feel without pain or hate. A person that is depressed or feeling down can listen to an uplifting song and be happy again. Someone who has had a bad day at work can listen to some upbeat music and be ready to face the chaotic world again. There is a form of music for every and any situation. Music gets people through everything. Without it, there would be more pain, more death, and more sadness. Life would be bleak, lonely, and pointless.
