The music rings softly through my eardrums

I feel numb

No longer anxious but calm

Beethovens ninth symphony

A musical brilliancy

The symphony unfolds with celestial might,

Strings and brass unite, shimmering in light,

An ode to joy, to love, and to embrace,

A content look crept onto my face

It opened my eyes

Set my troubles aside

My refuge away from the world

Helps me to fantasise and romanticise

My favourite piece of music
