It is not a poem, but a story of my life
Music in my life is something what gives me energy to live. It is something what keeps me going through the day. It brings emotions in me which I can not explain, but in a way I can. It is something what keeps me alive and gives me will to fight everyone and everything that stands in my way. Music lights up certain feelings I had never felt before. Music is my melody of life. But, it was not always like that.
One day when I was searching for new songs on YouTube, I found a group called One Republic. I heard about them before, but I never listened to any of their songs. I was going through their songs, but one of them kept repeating and repeating, again and again. So I pressed play, song seemed to be nothing special, but then he started singing ''All the right friends in all the right places. So yeah, we're going down. They got all the right moves in all the right faces. So yeah, we're going down, they said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going. Yeah, we're going down. They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going. Yeah, we’re going down ’’. While listening to it, I closed my eyes and pictures and images started appearing in my mind. I could see everyone making mistakes, choosing wrong choices, taking a wrong path in life. No one was perfect, everyone made mistakes. I could see the world the way it really is. So many people in the world making wrong decisions, without considering how their actions will affect others. At one moment I heard my mom calling me, and the images suddenly stopped and I opened my eyes. Next day I went to school, through the whole day I kept thinking about that song. When school finished, I went to a park near my school. I took my music player out, placed the earphones in my ears and pressed play. Immediately, the same song I was thinking about day before was playing now. I closed my eyes again, but now I could see people making right choices, choosing right paths, taking care of their families, doing the best they can in order to correct the mistakes they made in the past. World suddenly seemed as a beautiful place. Everyone was happy. No one was suffering, all the wars had stopped, and there was no more hunger or crime. Then I started smiling, opened my eyes and started running home. There was this feeling I could not explain with words. I ran into my house, and ran into my kitchen where my mom was making lunch. I gave her a big hug and told her that I love her. She was looking at me wondering what is wrong, and I told her that I feel so happy without any reason. She told that she never saw me this happy. I went to my room, threw myself on the bed. I turned my player on, and again closed my eyes and I could see the world’s true beauty once more. Next day in school, everyone asked me, including my teachers, why am I so happy, and I told them, life is beautiful as long as we keep it beautiful. They were all looking at me, and I told them that a song helped me realize that.
Few months had passed, I was out with several of my friends and we were sitting in the same park, on the same porch where I realized how beautiful our world is, and how magical it is. But, then a boy approached me, and asked me what is music,and I told him it is a way of life.
