faraway voice

written april 21.

what's it like to be heard?
do you still hum the old melodies?
do you wish people listened?
----------------------------------------

i sung today.
properly, for the first time in weeks.
i let everything that has happened in recent times out, and bared my soul.
and it was magic.

i don't think i can express myself any better than through song.
it lets me release.
in one moment, everything that hung over me faded away, and it was simply me and my voice. and that is really the most priceless experience one can have.
it was honest, and raw, and i was at one with myself.
i realised emotions that i had not yet brought out; i put the hurt and loneliness with the music, and turned it into something else - understanding and acceptance.

i will be on stage again in a few weeks, and i am dying to show the world how i feel.
i am growing, and moving, and learning, and it is only making me better.

and you know what?
maybe, just maybe, i am getting a glimpse of who i will be in the near future.
stronger. electric. mesmerising.
jessie.

--------------------------------------------------
and i will walk with you on a summer's day,
and i will talk to you though you're faraway
and we'll sing through the years...
