Music

By: Ellie R.

I am a musician

I love music.

Creating it, listening to it 

Even dancing to it.

Spending hours learning a song on my piano

Even though I don’t play.

Singing along to almost every song that

comes on the radio.

Listening to songs on repeat to learn the lyrics so that I can sing along better next time.

Humming melodies that I can’t get out of my head in math class.

Getting yelled at by the teacher to stop because my humming is distracting for the students who weren’t paying attention in the first place.

But I don’t care.

Because after the embarrassment of being lectured in front of my math class, listening to music calms me down and makes me forget about all the bad in this world.
