inner beast (gentle giant)

with so much noise in your ears,
how can it possibly be silent in your heart?

the keyboard stirs me;
with every press of a key
my stomach tumbles and turns.
i can feel the bass kicking within me
and the guitar chords
echo in my mind.
the melody becomes a part of me.
my heart is swelling with emotion
and i'm swaying; being pulled to it.
silence is overcome by sound's emotion.

but you who are close to me
and should have access to this
delicate part of my mind –
you don’t get it.
you need silence to be moved.
how come you can't feel it?
why aren't there tears in your eyes
and a smile on your face?
i don't feel the need to explain it
again and again and again.
the passionate look on my face should
"paint a picture instead".
