Soothing

It's quite strange how the time of day, and the playing of soothing music can make one feel such a feeling
The internal warmth spreading through my body like a vicious disease
The anxious butterflies flapping their delicate wings in my stomach cavity
The light lifting and falling of my chest to the plucking of guitar strings
A wave of restlessness drowns me, leaving me sinking in my sheets while the music kiss my ears

Author's Notes/Comments: 

What inspired this was every night, or even during the day, I have these moments of like pure joy and realness almost. I'll be sitting, listening to music or just thinking and I'll think to myself, "Wow I have a great life, this is a great moment, etc." And I write most of my poems during these moments. I love these moments and yearn for them.

A lovely poem for a lovely

A lovely poem for a lovely thought. This seems to be a bit of a recurring theme in your poetry, I like it a lot :) Just out of interest what kind of music makes you feel this way? Keep up the good work

Thank you! And just really

Thank you! And just really slow, calm music. Such as Bon Iver, Bobby Long, The Lumineers, artists like that.
