Music's True Nature

Beautifully complex

Yet seemingly simple

It flows from fingers and mouths

It flows from metal and wood

It floats on the breeze

Swaying the leaves in the trees

A bow on a string

A mouth singing in harmony

Air leaving a mouth

Traveling through a tube

And transforming into beautiful notes

Haunting

Yet gorgeous

Melancholy

But hopeful

Emotions of every kind

Words no one dares to speak

A story to tell

In every piece

Music can heal

It can say more than a thousand words

It can help you connect

Understand

And grow

I play violin

And in every piece

There is a peace I cannot describe

There is a hope too strong to tell

And there is a story told

With every note

For me

Music is beauty

It is connection

And it is emotion

Music is so much

I don't even know how to say
