Music

I put my headphones on,
Turn the volume up as loud as it can go.
I close my eyes and escape.
The riffs, the melodies, everything
Sink into my head.
I am living in a world where
The word "can't" has never been spoken,
And every color exists.
The rhythm takes my soul and runs with it,
Runs until it's exhausted, but keeps running
Out of pure and simple bliss.
Reality comes whirring back,
But I do not.
