apparently,
i am a freak.
i am a weirdo.
i'm anti-social.

i am the girl
who choses to sit
in front of the speakers
in her room
and listen.

the girl
who doesn't like to go out much,
who'd sooner stay in
with her music.

this makes me a freak.
a weirdo.

it is unnatural
to depend on music
as much as all that.

well let me tell you.

music lets me feel, when i have no emotion.
it runs through my veins
and brings them to life...

music lets me cry, when i have run out of tears.
it lets me let go
and just think...

music lets me love, when i am empty.
the best cure for an aching heart
that i ever learnt...

but the thing i love
more than anything else,

music lets me be me.

music doesn't tell me i'm useless.
that i should change my clothes.
or be someone i'm not.

music is ALWAYS there.
no matter what i do.
no matter who i hang out with.
no matter how i feel.

there is always music that will help me through.

so yes,
you can call me a freak.
you can call me anti-social.
and you can call me a weirdo.

but music is the life support machine i need to breathe.
and you won't ever make me pull the plug...

Oh wow...how did I miss this? Yes! Fucking...just...I love poems about music. I felt quite the same as you do. You'd have to kill me before I would lose the music in my head, my soul, and all around me.

*nods in agreement* except for the female portion, I feel you one hundred per cent. It can provoke any emotion you will it to; and of the many things we turn to, it's always there.... and it rarely lets us down

The thing I like about music is that the words do not have to be great for the song to be. This was very good... and actually I give people a funny look when they say don't listen to music much. :::OLd
