Sound Waves

I am from sound waves.

From emotional melodies and sizzling guitar riffs.
I am from the middle of the woods where a vibrant yellow house with pained windows rests.
From energetic tonalities overlooked by Dragons.
Heart and embrasement released from the energy in the air.
Tranquility.

I am from the energy created by a running creek.
The towering redwood whose long gone limbs I remember as if they were my own.
I’m from video games and fast cars.
From Mom and Dad.

I’m from music and from strong friendships.
I’m from love and care and hakuna matata.
I’m from family time.
I’m from the east coast and Irish and country fried steak.
From adventure and experience.

Charisma.

Guitars built to be played, and create mysterious mesmerizing music.

Guitars on the walls of my home.
The place where I can think in peace and focus on the world's beating heart.
Earth's beats and harmony within the white noise.
This is where I’m from.

I wrote this as a message to the world of who am as an eighteen year old in this massive world. This peom consists of what my passions are and how I was raised growing up. I wanted others to be able to percive what I interpreted from the experience I have gathered so far. My passion for music is a main theme of my poem.
