Summation

a song a beat a vocal
tickling the inner ear
a
tune that enables 
whistling minutes after
one listening &
on & on for days after,
the melodies &
harmonies that give us
bliss & asking nothing
of us except for each
to delight in the
passing on like stories
of old, like lyrics of
now like images &
tales from the big screen
to the net, from the 
comfort in memory of
which we all derive
where the happiest of
times are welded in
with music, simple,
gorgeous, uncompromising,
unobligated &
humble, truly
humble
music,
this sums it all up
like a person one finds
themselves falling in love
with & gets paradoxically
disappointed, simultaneously
because they’ve only
just found them &
wished they had the years
that have already passed to
spend with them,
sheer utter beauty in the
stumbling onto a new
song, a new sound, a new
rhythm, which can jog
similar, if not even more
pure & unadulterated
bliss, opening ones eyes to
a whole new world
brought on by this
exchange of notes &
noise, that which can
bring everyone together,
that which does unite
regardless of time &
place, a welcomed vein
in us all, to which being
completely vulnerable
& emotionally affected
is perfectly alright.
