The music wraps around me
Intoxicating and bittersweet
The warmth in your eyes
Draws me close
And so it goes
The soprano drones on
The pianist smacks the keys
The awed breathing
Of the spectators
Unbelievable! For them
To be so easily wowed
Reclining my head
Upon your chest
I close my eyes
And let the dream begin
A concert hall, an opera house
Germany, Austria, France, New York, Italy
And I'm the one they want to see.
To feel that joy, to let the music pour
Like a torrent from my body
Let the emotion unravel
Oh the utter ecstasy...
And to walk home
To a little rundown hovel
No money for bread or water
But content... save one thing
If only I could keep you in my arms.

aftermath
The dreams are worse
They won't stop - unceasing
Why can't I simply let go?
Why tell me things
I can no longer undo?
Why torture me,
With hopeless ifs and whens?
They won't stop - unceasing
Why can't I simply let go?
Why tell me things
I can no longer undo?
Why torture me,
With hopeless ifs and whens?

Today
Some days are slower than others. Today was one of those days. Some of the minutes felt slow I could feel them drag past my body like a flood of molasses dragging me though life. Today was not a bad day, merely a slow day.

Snow
The swirling little fluries
Decorate the Air
Floating slowly, floating quickly
Falling everywhere
The people panic
Some just stand still
All fall to mother nature's wrath.
But her temper tantrum
Invokes such wonder
And beauty it thus creates
So can we not help, but wonder
What are we doing here?
