Bright Notes

I breathe in and out. I am tired of hearing noises that are so displeasing to me, and I retract myself from everything. I hide myself in a cocoon of music. My earbuds are in. I turn on whatever I want to listen to. This is my light, my shelter, and my peace. In music I find serenity and hope. When darkness seems unavoidable, music always has a way of fighting it off and piercing the darkness with a beam of brightness.
