Some people say most people are loved the most when they are gone, you only know the worth of something when it is gone. And I find all these to be so true.
Music is magic. Last night was magical for me, I never had such an experience in my life.
I was where I didn't want to be it was against my every will but still, I had no choice or say. Staying with my brother—the ones I am not familiar with, and his friends was upsetting for me.
They went against my every rule of environment. I hated noise and they were just the opposite so when my brother called and said he was coming over with his three friends I was angry but I had no choice but to receive them with open arms because it was already late and they all ended up getting locked outside the estate.
They came and they carried insomnia with them, I couldn't even close my eyes. It was a battle to get a little sleep, they reduced the music coming from the music player when I complained about it but still, it didn't make any difference. No matter how low it was as long as I was hearing it was a problem.
I picked up my phone and decided to chat with a friend since I couldn't get sleep and from one thing to the other after telling her about the obstacle that was between sleep and me that night she suggested I tried listening to songs that are like lullabies. She suggested a song for me —trampoline by Shaed and I downloaded it. I don't know if the song is popular because I heard about it for the first time from my friend. I played it the first time and I liked the melody of the song and said to myself this might just make me sleep in minutes.
I took my earpiece blocked out the music and put my phone on airplane mode. I set the music play time to an hour and then laid down to play the music on a loop.
I expected to sleep early but on the continuous listen I began to delve deep into the song away from this world into another. The imagination of the lyrics had me zoned out. In the first verse where she sang,
"I've been havin' dreams"
"Jumpin' on a trampoline"
"Flippin' in the air"
"I never land, just float there"
"As I'm looking up"
"Suddenly the sky erupts"
"Flames alight the trees"
"Spread to fallin' leaves"
"Now they're right upon me."
As someone with a wide imagination, it was amazing and beautiful and scary at the same time. Close your eyes, and just imagine it.
Then the part that got me thinking about my life,
"When I dream of dying"
"I never feel so loved"
I felt that part so much because I actually could relate to it. Having so many people in my life who only cared when something was wrong, I started to recall that many people whom I loved never initiated contact with me without a specific reason, but rather, I was always the one checking up on them.
LOL, I released some tears last night, a few drops, and slept off. And it still amazes me how this song got so close to me. I felt it.
I hope you enjoy it too
