Curtains are closed, lights turned off,
Earphones worn tightly over the ears.
Listening to my favourite songs,
Tuning to the rhythm, tagging along.
Lying down on the bed,
Placing my hands over my head.
Breathing slowly, concentration clear,
Enjoying the moment, drifting near.
First you enjoy it, then you feel it,
Slowly it takes over your broken heart,
As if the melody is itself a medicine,
Healing your soul, giving a fresh start.
