somewhere

Why “SOMEWHERE”?  Because tonight I want  to believe that I belong somewhere, that life is more than noise and chaos, that there is a place where peace and compassion are  celebrated.  Because tonight the world is a lonely, dark, unforgiving void trying to suck me in.  That’s why I write, that’s why I listen to music.  The darkness can’t touch me when my mind fills with words and beautiful music.  

“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.”
― Maya Angelou
