There you sit there, on the other side of the glass and I, I... just a caress away a simple move of your finger a bend of your wrist a click to where I am in a symphony no closer to a requiem and money... I have and freedom... freedom to go anywhere but where I wish where I wish to be wanted and no... no place for me there no heart for me there where you are and I I... the sad symphony the lacrimosa of strings choosing choosing where to go but where I wish I must go alone so it seems... to this man in a solitary symphony a lacrimosa of strings one day closer to his requiem |

Lacrimosa indeed. Sad, but your heart speaks its melancholy beautifully. Love, Margherita |

Nice...very! [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (12-03-2009 11:00 PM).] |

Margherita: Yeah, I write sad well, usually my best writing, I think, usually Blues: I REALLY like the excerpt you pulled out by itself. I think it stands alone beautifully, perhaps along with the top few lines. I may consider that in an editing decision later down the road. You have a great eye, thanks for pointing that out. |

I am not a blues lover but you did this beautifully. I enjoyed the sadness the way you wrote it. latearrival. |
