I ♥ ♫

In The Realm of Music
By Shatera G. Fahari-Libertad Spring 09 - Technology/Communication Issue

I can depend on you
I’m assured that you won’t let me down
You’re not selfish
You cater to my every need
You constantly give and never take away
Instead of draining me of energy,
You lift me up and make me feel better
You take me away
Far away to another place
Where everything is fine,
I’m loved and happy
A place where no one else can go
A place where anything is possible
I can be myself
There are no false pretenses
I know exactly what is going on
You won’t deceive me
There is no confusion
Unlike people, I can trust you
I can live forever in the realm of music

Since I wrote this I've realized that I cannot live in the realm of music, no matter how hard I try. Real life is complex and attempting to hide from it in my music doesn't allow for much growth.
