If I was asked to name 

one thing that knew me the best, 

without hesitation I would say 

my playlist. 

Music is everything to me 

and while I may not know 

the difference between the genres,

I know one thing 

Music isn’t bound by 

such formalities neither am I. 

I listen to a song for the purpose 

of connecting with it regardless 

of if it is pop, reggae or rap. 

I care less about the labels 

and more about what the sound makes 

me feel, how the tunes flow into one another, 

what the lyrics mean and what mood the

songs put me in. 

This may be why I don’t mind walking alone 

because I have great company, 

My earphones and 

my playlist.
