Perfect Fifths

for you,
it's an enjoyable experience. it sounds pretty. it's a good song. it's not something you'd listen to often because it's not something you can sing along with. it's not something you can sing or dance to. for you, it's attending a friend's orchestra concert. it's putting up with someone else wanting to hear the sound of two violins, a viola, a cello and a bass play in perfect harmony. for you it's sound. it's noise. maybe for you it's what you'd call music. such a loose term.

for me,
it's heart. it's soul. it's body. it's an all encompassing experience. it's emotion. it's love, it's hate, it's pure happiness and pure sadness and every emotion you've ever felt slamming into you all at once. it's tears of joy, sadness and pain. for me, it's foreplay and it's sensual and it's a climax. it's blood, sweat and tears. it's the connection i have with my violin and the love i've always had for playing. for me it's no longer about whether or not i can play that measure but the fact that I'M MAKING MUSIC anyways. to me, i'm the instrument. to me, i'm the one being played, and she's the one with the talent. For me, it's all  of my heart. For me it's my heart racing, for me it's my heart no longer beating. To me it's memories, it's future, it's RIGHT NOW.

It's Love, for me.
It's hard work and an amazing payoff.
It's the closest I ever come to realizing how much I am.
It's Harmony.
