An Escape

Beats pounding

Bass thumping

Heart screaming for more

Soul screaming for it to be louder

Brain resting peacefully

Mouth shaping the words known

Automatically

Like breathing

Music

The only escape from life

From the sadness and pain

And I wonder

In death, the eternal escape from life, is it music?

Do you sway to its terrifying beat

Mouthing the words left in your soul

Hearing your old heartbeat like the bass

And your voice in tears the violin

And your screams the guitar

And the pounding of your fists the drums

And your mere existence

The words to the song?
