life soundtrack

there is a hidden treasure lurking between the sounds
of simple notes and measures, bass lines make the pound,
pound, pounding sound of your heart match your feet,
everything swings into tune as your body sways to meet
music, embrace it, grab it's hips, face it
you were born to dance, bred to fall into a trance
of written notes mixed with time, both designed
and framed by our body and mind interpretation of sound,
bound by this sacred marriage to music we've found
our ears caressing songs, our mouths singing along,
there are few things as strong as music's effect
on our dialect, how we introspect, and connect
in social settings, or even how we drive in our cars,
if music was a prison we'd all be trapped behind the bars
of our favorite songs
