Sinking Music

The feeling that boils inside of you whilst hearing breathtaking music is priceless.

Turn the volume up ‘til the sound fills my ears

It slinks through my mind, taking it in

Whether a shade of yellow or grey

Engulfed in a space that won’t spin

 

Built emotions that hurl around

Clasping memories inside

Or filling the empty hole of innocence

Strange circles of bareness so dense

 

You drift off, it sends you away

You fly, you fall, you crave

Static, your soul set to a straight lane

Within is taking forks, and tails

 

Turn the volume up ‘til the world disappears

Fire me to a pot of fury

And as the music ends

Gently wipe my streaking tears

Author's Note

This is what I often feel/experience when I hear the kind of music that takes my breath away.
