Hour Four Prompt

It devours your soul,

then it spits you out.

 

It devours your soul,

and you can’t escape.

All that was hidden inside you

is unveiled

by music.

The three to five minutes it plays

feels like an eternity,

and just when you think it will never end,

it stops

just like that.

 

Then it spits you out,

leaving you to feel empty again,

and all of that was unveiled from inside of you

becomes hidden once again.

You long for that high.

You long for that inexplicable feeling

that you get when it plays.

Thus, your three to five minute moment paradise begins again,

and time seems rewind itself

as if you went into a time machine in order to turn back time.

Everything feels like it once did a moment ago,

and that process repeats

at any time you wish.

 

It devours your soul,

then it spits you out.

Music’s splendid ability.

Start,

pause,

play.

Rewind

and

replay.

No matter what you choose,

you can’t escape.
