I Love Music

I love music, 
It’s what makes my heart tick.
It can make my mood turn mellow or blue, 
Put a smile on my face when I think about you.

Music and melodies can tear the heart right out of you,
Or raise you to a higher plain as the rhythm gets a hold and won’t let go.
Starts at the head till it finds your feet,
Then it gets hard just trying to sit there in your seat.

Some lyrics will bring on the tears,
Or melt away the years.
As they open the gate of hidden memories you thought you had forgot,
As if by magic they resurrect an old memory of a different time or spot.

Yeah, I love music,
I guess that's how I get my kicks.
Music is like history or maybe a way to gauge time,
Short stories written down in verses that usually have reason to their rhyme.
