Music saves me

Some days are hard and others harder
Looking into nothingness as my mind slips into the dark despair
As I recall the demons of my past sending shivers down my spine, I whimper in fear
Surprised at the sudden wetness, I look at my hands
Didn't know the tears had begun to fall that fast
Wringing my hands together as the first sob escaped my chest
Thinking about the blood shed and the life I had led
Feeling dirty from the inside out, scrubbing hard still wishing I was dead
Rocking back and forth as the water swooshes around me
Through the thick silence I hear the breaking of my will
Head in my hands, with a splitting ache I heard it
The soft sweet sounds coming thru the door
Reaching out to me and drawing me out of the empty void
It soothed my heart like never before
Listening I felt my eyes dry up and tears stop to fall
It drowned out the voices in my head and ran it's course
Pulled my mind from the brink and hit me with force
Inhaling I smile finally able to breathe and do so with ease
As the sobs that racked my chest began to cease
I rose up, feeling the energy lost in the sounds that surrounds me
Moved that the sweet notes were able to touch and heal me
