In moments of black grief And the vast and hollow pit of despair Their voices soothe me, Rouse me, wake me. They belt out my pain aloud Then croon me into sleep. When in utter desolation, Treading upon my very spirit That lies flat beneath my feet, I touch the switch and I am gone. They draw me out, some different dimension Or seep in to replace the essence of me With moans and laments, With keening and whispers, And I am lost within the blend Of sweet and clear piano notes, like water Tinkling on ice; the human cry of violins, The drawn out wail of a lonely guitar And the busy drums that bind them together Into a tangible sea of sound-- Click. The magic's over. |

What word pictures you paint. Some parts are dark and then it gets light with music. A very different way with words. Thanks for sharing, ME |
