if music be the food

[josilverdragon]

It's amazing to me how much music touches me in ways I cannot anticipate. Like tonight, listening to Hans Zimmer's "Time" from the Inception cinematic soundtrack and the Interstellar theme. I posted a poem as a result because the resulting feelings became too much to hold inside. I have so much emotion sometimes and I do not have any other outlet than poetry. And I cannot believe I avoided poetry like I did, for so long like I did. Again, it's all his fault. For bringing this back for me. Or for helping me bring it back for myself. For writing poetry that resonates, with words that strike to the core of me, and full of emotion that I can feel while reading them. Or hearing them, as the case may be.

I think I'm going to try to no longer feel a little ridiculous that a singer/songwriter/poet has affected me in such a way, and just own it. As a quote I read recently says "They're will judge you anyway, so keep going".
