by kateryna gehlhaarI have been surrounded by music for as long as I can remember.
When I was 3 I used to throw a tantrum if my mom didn’t play the tiger song on repeat in the car I remember singing Annie at the top of my lungs alongside my sister My mom raised me on Sound of Music and the Little Mermaid, But I never really knew the effect that it had on my life till I was in middle school. I started to go through some of the hardest years of my life, I was being bullied at school My parents almost split up I was a ballerina at the time, yet I was not as good as I had always hoped to be I was constantly sad, anxious, and felt like I had no control over what was going on around me Then I found music I found songs about the struggles that I was going through I found mad songs that I would scream to in my room Sad songs that I would cry to in the shower Happy songs that I would have the most epic dance parties soon Music saved me Took me away from my reality It was my escape I was able to find lyrics and melodies that reflected my inner most feelings I no longer felt alone There were other people in this world that knew what I was feeling And they had put them into the most perfect words Since then music has been my love I take lyrics to heart I cry, laugh, and sing as loud as I can to my favorite songs I let music take me away from the real world Music changed my life It taught me that I am never alone That this will all end in time Music will forever be my escape Thank you music For changing my life
