Music is life support for my heart,
The sounds of the beats keep it alive.
The rhythms are my soul's words,
You don't seem to see nor hear with your own soul.
Take away my padded room of my musical existance,
then I'll surely go insane on the world.
Take away my headphones to my life line,
is like giving up on a mortally wounded soldier.
How do I cope with everything
and not unleash it on to the world that has denied me?
its in a simple man-made device that saved me,
and the bands that course through my heart's wires.
The beats of the song,
they are in sync with my steps,
The heart beats I have,
They are fueled by the power of music that saved me.
The thing you can't seem to get,
is that I live for music,
its deeply rooted within of me. its apart of my soul.
Its the only reason that i haven't been put away.
People are too soon forget,
the power of just a simple violin.
They are too soon to look pass,
that one CD that helped them through a hard day.
YOU don't see it,
but I do,
music is in everything we do and say.
Music is our lives!
Without it,
we would be mute,
we would have all died out long ago.
And this poem wouldn't be written to honor this pleasure.
You may have forgotten that music is alive,
but i have not.
I shall never forget the life support i'm on,
and what its doing to keep me alive in a harsh world of uniformity.
Author notes
i really have to thank music and the bands that are in my mp3 player, for litterally helping become who i am today.
i'm sure everyone (some won't deny it but some won't admit it either) that they have had music save them sometime in their life...
i'm sure not many people realize it, but music really is important to us as a race as it is in the animal world. its all around us...
though my mp3 player is man-made, its the best thing in my life (aside from my friends). for it takes their place for when my human friends are no where to be found.

So true. Music is the basis of everything in our natural lives. Nice job putting that into words.
