The Only Moment We Were Alone ♥

because we all have that one song that can define who we are & this one is mine. This is my heart and for me, this is me pouring out my soul for all of you to hear if you so choose. Yes, it's a long one, but the path to love is never known to be short, let alone an easy one.

When I hear this song, a wave of serenity fills me and it makes me realize how empty I was before I had listened to this. It makes me realize how empty I might be still and that I should always look for that missing piece of myself that is waiting to be discovered if I just put in some time and energy to search for it.

I can see my life, my memories, flash before my eyes as I listen to this song and I picture the many people I've seen smile and how they've molded me into who I am today. How each individual hardship and joyous occasion can culminate to create something beautiful... to create someone beautiful: me. I can't take back the pain and hurt I've caused others and I can't make that a positive experience for them. I'm learning now through my own means on how to be happy so that I may be truly happy with all of who I am.

It's silly to say that a song could have that much brevity, but it's true. That's why instrumentals are my favorite; they give through their simple complexities and make their own definitions of beauty that cannot be explained in words. You just have to listen to it yourself. There's never a right or a wrong. It's there for you to pick up and interpret in any way you'd like - maybe that's why I love it so much, because I feel like it sets me free and that it can define who I am without even needing any lyrics to accompany it.

They always say that you have found true friendship if you can sit in silence with them and not feel the need to fill the void, that both parties find comfort and solace in the peace. True, music isn't silent in the least, but we're so used to hearing words mashed into a song, even if they don't correlate at all. This for a majority of society is "silence", because there's no explanation for the title or for its purpose.

So this is my gift to you, because I love you. I want you to know me better in the only way that I know how. Even if all you get from this is that I am a crazy loon who sees and hears things in a different light, if you accept me, follies and all, then I am happy <3
