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.
