"Music is the soundtrack to our souls. It can heal, it can hurt, and it can guide us through the storm."
-
Track 1: OUR SONG
Bass thumping like my hopeful heart,
Your voice harmonizing with mine.
I hit repeat, again, again,
Lost in our perfect rhyme.
Track 3: HONEYMOON
Soft acoustics and gentle lyrics,
A lullaby of new love's gleam.
We sway together, eyes locked tight,
Living our sweetest dream.
Track 5: DISCOURSE
Discordant notes,
Painful clash,
Volume rising with each verse.
A melody we once created,
Now sounds like a curse.
Track 7: BLUES
A slow,
Soulful tune of regrets.
Harmonyā
Tentatively restored.
Underneath the mended notes,
Doubt's dissonance still roars.
Track 9: SILENCE
The pause between songsā
Stretches long,
Static filling empty space.
I strain to hear your voice again,
But silence has taken its place.
Track 11: PIQUE
Heavy metal
Screams our fury,
Guitars wail what words can't say.
I thrash and shout along with it,
Purging pain in my own way.
Track 13: TEARS AND WINE
Melancholy piano,
Mournful strings,
A soundtrack for sleepless nights.
I let the sadness wash over me,
Bathing in neon lights.
Track 15: ON REPEAT
A mixtape of our
Greatest hits,
Bittersweet nostalgic seasons.
I listen through just one last time,
Before I pack away it all.
Track 17: DISCLOSURE
A beat
I'd forgotten I loved,
Awakens something within.
My foot taps,
My spirits lift,
As I let a new song begin.
Track 19: AFFINITY
A ballad all my own,
Celebrating who I've become.
Each verse,
A step towards healing,
A new chapter just begun.
Track 21: FRIENDS AND LAUGHTER
Upbeat tunes,
And cheerful rhythms,
Reminding meā
Joy still has a place.
Surrounded by those who stayed,
I find my smile,
My saving grace.
Track 23: COUP
Bass drops,
My heart soars,
I'm dancing on my own.
This playlist ends with me, myself.
Strong, and finally grown.
Track 25: BEGIN AGAIN
Fresh melody fills the air.
Possibility,
Such sweet refrain.
My heart opens to its rhythm,
Ready to love,
To risk again.
This piece reminded me of those late nights spent pouring over my own playlist, trying to find the perfect song to express my emotions.
