The Sound of True Love

Flirting with alternative sounds
Sometimes they light a spark
When the soul is feeling dark
 
They tease with their different vibes
Pushing buttons you didn’t know you had
Releasing tension relieving all that 'mad'
 
The genre, not your usual expressive beat
Another rhythm unfamiliar, but exciting flow
Changing pace, the notes they make you glow
 
You want to dance but don’t know the steps
They don’t fit with the ones you know so well
But luring you devilishly towards the heat of hell
 
Only love can save the day
Memories made over many years
Sounds that comfort, take away your fears
 
That fantasy dance is where it will stay
For the soothing of the music you know and love
Fits every curve of your soul, just like a glove
 
With my own music in mind now
Let us take to the floor and dance til we drop
For the music keeps us alive, so don’t let it stop

Don't stop the music! An expressive metaphorical poem which compliments love and moods. There's nothing wrong with "flirting with alternative sounds", but our heart & soul will always feel the pull of that one special satisfying tune! Warm regards // paul

I do the same and try to replicate my mood with different genre of music. I think it really helps enhance the feelings going through my mind and makes me a better writer in the process. I love your poem Laura.

Thank you so much Tim! Music definitely defines my mood and vice versa on what I then listen too. Kind Regards, Laura.
