COME PLAYER …

Fingers dancing on white like petals falling from a rose;
The occasional flourish through the dark brings somber sighs.

Touch so soft, the wind hallows its coming;
Tone so clear, creatures awing only hope to sing.

Tempo's perfected form finds comfort in any time;
Timbre's widened range stretched beyond limits.

Repeat the passage of passion and desire;
With hands warmed from the fires of love.

Strike softly once again to fill the void;
The empty space fills quickly with resonance so sweet.

Now the quickening has caught its breath;
The pace without fail comes to you in a flurry.

Following brass leads, down corridors of invention;
Compose through thought, impulse and passion.

Come player, the air is empty in your absence;
Silence again angered at your arrival.

this is very cool...
very creative use of the music metaphors to define the emotions.
nice touch of sensuality
well written
excellent imagery
enjoyed this read

I think I could need - this in my life
If you're gone - baby you need to come home
there's a little bit of something me
In everything in you
