Isn't it strange how a few simple bars,
A few words, a steady beat,
And a style "in-synch" with our hearts
Can influence us so much?
One song plays, and stress is relieved.
Another brings more pain.
A bittersweet message can be the most
Inspiring to the soul.
Your soul and mind is heartened,
With one strain.
Yet on another end, a single measure
And you unleash the wild.
Some mystery creeps into us when
A harmony contrasts.
A certain mood is expressed, and
You feel it.
As one sings along, or makes music alone,
Or as a group,
Every thread shines brightly in the design of
Harmonies and melodies.
Yet again, there must always be the opposite:
Darkness or animalistic
Thoughts, actions, and feelings may creep into us.
Why do we allow such?
Music is a lifeline in a rage of troubled seas,
And to be saved,
We simply need to grab on and hold tight,
Before we slip.
However, be careful- each buoy and life-saving ring
Can either be strong and true,
Or have hidden, slippery holds, and tiny holes.
We can either float or sink.
There is no in-between.

Again, it's really hard for me to revise anything I write. Sorry if it's too raw and ill-developed! (Which it is)
I love music. Consider how it impacts you.
