Music

You help me
through the worst times in my life,
as well as the great ones, too.
You lift my spirits,
make it easier to inhale,
and say the words I can't express by myself.
I listen to you everyday,
I practically breathe you in and out through my lungs.
I can't separate myself from you,
because I can't be myself without you.

I talk about music as if it is a person,
saying "you" instead of "it".
Although music doesn't have a human form,
it has many different voices,
speaking and meaning different things to others.
Music is everything to me,
because I found my way through it,
and I know who I am now.
To me, music is the voices of angels,
rescuing me from pain and hurt.
Music brings me peace, happiness, and understanding.
Thank you, God, for letting music be.
For music is just silence and sound made into something beautiful.
