Ode To Music

A steady heartbeat thumping in my ears, Lost in my thoughts, the world around me a blur. No longer do I feel the pain of living, no more tears. But, when the music's gone, horrid things start to occur. With no beat, no voice, no bass, my world collapses. Cold and trembling, I find it hard to breathe. Desperate to hear melodies again, wanting to be safe. Gone is my confidence, struggling to live, happiness lapses. Gone is my shield to protect me from the comments of seethe; Their words cold and cutting have me under strafe.
