for you, for me.

my life until this point, and for forevermore, revolves around music. often i come across these strange little moments in time where this concept hits me harder at home than usual, but today in particular my love for music was reawakened.

music is something that can bring out the best, and the worst in us. it can make us feel emotion like nothing else can. when i play, nothing else matters to me, and i never feel lonely next to a piano, as idiotic as it may sound. music is all i can think about. skill level doesn't matter, just an understanding and a love for tunes. a simple chord progression, a melody, the echo coming from the sustain pedal on a grand piano, an amazing voice, can take something simple we may feel every day, and magnify it x100.

when you think you've forgotten someone, something, or a moment in time, music will bring it back stronger than before, and its always when you never expect it. today, after hearing the right song at a time when i was ready to accept the way things were, i was moved to tears and i couldn't explain why. since, i have been mellow and pensive, but also excited and on edge. i just want something to happen. to go somewhere, or meet someone. i want to experience life and love to its fullest. 

the song made me feel a love. i don't believe it's for the person i heard it from, but rather it came from my passion for music. it feels like love for a person i am yet to meet, or maybe i just really miss that person who played us the song, its quite difficult to tell. musicians are strange, a little twisted, and temperamental. i'm truly blessed to be twisted.









"..this is a place where i don't feel alone. this is a place where i feel at home.."
