Feet To Frets
You dance and roam the floor in the dark
a lament of things gone by
the sorrow for what they urge you to give
the impermanence of total instant gratification
I strum to take away the pain
and avoid any unpleasant dyad
to mask any insecurities
lingering doubts of being worthy
You dance closer and slightly smile
the weariness seems not so tough
not asking but gladly appreciating all that you are
a collision of hearts scared but not tarred
On mind still is the beauty of one moment
not having the courage to speak
hoping we shall meet again
when the dance and strum unite
a lament of things gone by
the sorrow for what they urge you to give
the impermanence of total instant gratification
I strum to take away the pain
and avoid any unpleasant dyad
to mask any insecurities
lingering doubts of being worthy

when the dance and strum unite

thank you---a tinge of melancholy maybe showed up because we lost a dear writer (Somelikeithot/Kitty)

that is correct. She became a moderator and then something just got to be too much. I just found out yesterday via Facebook.

Whew! Okay, well that stings because I adore her and her feedback on my work, but so thankful it wasn't a 'loss'. Too much death around me lately. Thanks for clearing that up! I'll hit her up on FB....Xo

thanks---my tendency is to focus on the music making and downplay that human connection but every now and then I slip :)

....a metaphoric joining of two light and airy disciplines. A divinely inspired meeting.....
