My Rhythm and Muse
We all need a muse from time to time
Someone to amuse when the notes won’t rhyme
A heart reaching for that same sunshine
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
It’s not a tryst or a love affair
Humanity’s burden just needs to be shared
Our souls are breathing the same dark air
I’ll be here if you’ll be there
We’re fighting battles and losing wars
Sending support from distant shores
Opening hearts to open the doors
Sing my song, and I’ll sing yours
Pull me, push me…
Higher than I thought I’d go
See me, teach me…
Break me out of this heavy shell
Know me, show me…
That what you see is worth your time
Be my rhythm…
I’ll be your rhyme
Someone to amuse when the notes won’t rhyme
A heart reaching for that same sunshine
I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
It’s not a tryst or a love affair
Humanity’s burden just needs to be shared
Our souls are breathing the same dark air
I’ll be here if you’ll be there
We’re fighting battles and losing wars
Sending support from distant shores
Opening hearts to open the doors
Sing my song, and I’ll sing yours
Pull me, push me…
Higher than I thought I’d go
See me, teach me…
Break me out of this heavy shell
Know me, show me…
That what you see is worth your time
Be my rhythm…
I’ll be your rhyme

Yes! We need someone to get through it all, share it, lift each other. Nice!

Re. Untitled, for now
Dearest, K my musical compadre 😍
I am truly touched by this piece. It gives voice to some of my long-held feelings about this place and the friendas that I've made here on DUP. Oh how I identify with this brilliant and beautifully written pasage,
"It’s not a tryst or a love affair
Humanity’s burden just needs to be shared"
And this passage perfectly describes our friendship,
"Opening hearts to open the doors
Sing my song, and I’ll sing yours"
Bravisima, Diosa de la música y fiel amiga ❣🌹

Aw, my heart is warmed, that you related to this... Of course you get it. 😊 I have to be careful how I talk of my "online friends" to people from the real world... they think I'm crazy! (And I am, a little bit - but thanks to the souls out there in the ether-realms, I can cope.)
Glad to share this space with you, friend.

Dear K,
Everyone already took the good words. Dang it! You’re so right about the muses here online. Some days it’s the only sane place to be because reality is too harsh and ether-friends get it and stand behind us as a support structure getting us to the next moment.
So very grateful I can count you as one of my dear muses. H🌷

Oh, H! You're so very sweet. 💖 I always appreciate your support and humour and wise-girl words... you've just brought a ray of sunshine into a disgusting gray November day here. 😊
I'm grateful for you, too, and your incredibly loyal support. Not sure what I'd ever do without this place...

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had some experiences here that make me want to never touch the internet again. However on the flip side, I’ve gained lifelong friends here. And my twin. And I can’t be mad at the place for that.
This poem highlights for me the crux of the place for me too — we come here to share a little of ourselves with others. To heal, and be healed, even if we don’t realise it at the time.
“ We’re fighting battles and losing wars
Sending support from distant shores
Opening hearts to open the doors
Sing my song, and I’ll sing yours”
… so much this. Thank you for sharing. You’re a light, Squee.

Ah, Missy, you have a way of saying little wee things that just make me feel like a million bucks. Thank you. 😊
Sharing myself, in order to get to others, is kinda my jam, and it's really hard to do in the hard, "strong", real world. I need these safe places as much as air these days. I know I haven't been writing a whole lot, but I'm still here, and I'm glad you're part of it.
(And just a nudge... Bandlab is another awesome place of connection that doesn't seem to have any of the discord some people experience here. I do hope you can join me over there sometime! I feel so lucky to have two awesome creative communities of support now... and yeah, maybe even a twin. What a gift.)
Thanks again...

I absolutely love this Bt.
I did not just read this lyrical gem,
I was finding my rhythm and tempo with every connecting word.
Your structure and cadence are as clever as the resonating lyrics themselves.

Spectacular Rhapsodic Lyrical Poetry!!!

Thank you so much for this melodic comment, Feet! I would very much like to learn how to put my words to music. This was written with that in mind. The process still eludes me, but some day....
I appreciate your visit & kind encouragement.
