Hello Hive friends!
I’m really happy and excited to share another new entry for Vibes Week 36, inspired by the contest’s invitation to express creativity and connect with emotions. My submission is an original song I wrote, titled "Feels Like Love"
One of the things that this song revolves around is the feeling that exists in silence, which is a feeling that makes its home inside people who might not have experienced love directly and are yet deeply affected by its presence.
This is to say that the song deals with the unseen relationship that exists between music and the human heart. For example, feeling the intensity of love in a song, a story, a look, or even a sigh despite not having been in love in reality.
This tune talks about exactly that thing the rare sensitivity to feel something unnamed, untold. This is for those who are the carriers of the love, like a little barely noticeable echo inside them: not seen by the world, but still deeply alive within. This is for the people who are not able to articulate what they feel or express a lot more through their feelings than through words.
"Feels Like Love" (Original Lyrics)
Verse
I’ve never fallen in love with anyone,
And yet, somehow, my heart seems to know what it means
In quiet breaths, in melodies and chords,
There’s a gentle ache that plays like unspoken words.
I don’t really know what love feels like,
But sometimes, it feels like a nameless touch brushes my mind.
Through tears, smiles, and silent waits,
I feel it in songs or in someone’s distant gaze.
It feels like love,
As if someone floats by in the wind, and I just watch with quiet hope.
No one speaks, no one holds me,
But still, my heart trembles with a silent melody.
I see loss in other people’s eyes,
Things I’ve never had but somehow still feel deep inside.
Maybe songs are the only love I know,
Where I taste the longing I’ve never been shown.
I know this isn’t love
But this feeling is mine, and somehow it’s real enough.
Even those who never ask for love,
Carry a silent sorrow that fits like a glove.
It feels like love...
Maybe one day I’ll truly know it or maybe not.
But for now, this echo in the music
Is the only companion my heart has got.
Dedicated
This song is for those silent individuals who have never experienced love yet they still have the love feeling deep inside them. They have not ever said those words, have not ever written a love message, and have not ever felt the hand of someone they were holding as the person they are with for the rest of their lives. However, each and every time a love song is played for them, something changes inside them something gentle, something holy.
They are unable to understand it. They haven't lived love. However, love is not just a word for them, it's a feeling that they get from music, from poetry, from the instances in life, and from the stories that are not about them, but they are still talking directly to their souls. This is a song for the people who feel love but also understand situations and feelings of others without the need to experience them first.
Thanks again for everything.
Thank you to everyone who reads and supports this journey. Music has the power to connect, heal, and inspire-and I’m so grateful to share this piece with all of you.
Stay strong, stay inspired. 🌟

Sabrina
