a sound
a rhythm
an anticipation of the next beat
a thrill for the coming melody
always moving, never still

and even in silence,
wonderful, filling

numbing thoughts, mending emotions
a practical solution to impractical things

a theoretical understanding of the senselessness of feeling

bringing order into the irrational chaos
giving meaning to overwhelming confusion
and most importantly

helping to understand yourself
helping to be yourself
grasping the very essence of existence

echoing in your mind
with pictures and sound
making you feel
whole
and true
