To Music
*****
When nothing seems to work
And life becomes a drag
pushing me over to the brink,
I seek solace in you.
You numb my pain,
Gently pulling me away,
From hurting any further.
You let me be, just as I am.
Moments later, as it were,
as if by magic—my head is cleared,
the pain that gnawed, almost gone,
I’m back to where I started from.
In moments like these, I wonder,
Of the power, you hold over me
How you never fail to work your magic,
When words have ceased to be.

Joining Reema and Vinay for #wednesday Verses today.
The prompt for the week is ‘Music’.
So much of soothing power.
Thank you. Happy to hear that from you, D!
This is such a beautiful ode to music. I found this relatable because music often becomes my best friend when things don’t feel right.
Thank you, Reema. Am glad we tend to think alike on this too!
You never disappoint me, Esha, be it prose or verse. Glad to see you blogging. ❤
Nice poem.
