Music in Me
O singing
strings of my violin heart
let the vibrant breeze
of mellifluous air
embrace your deep rosewood skies
orchestrated in dulcet warmth….
Childhood can be a connotation
of cacophonous tunes,
where the sweetest sins
hide pain behind a smile.
We all have a story to tell,
but not all are born to narrate.
The poetic portray through poetry,
choosing calm over chaos.
others wishing
if only
music
could ease
away
all the pain.
Not all songs are as sincere
as they sound.
I should regret the stranger
I welcomed in my heart,
who's corrupt,
lyrical, crumpled ideas
made my soul tired.
Each beat left me
caught in the riptide of betrayal,
where even the weakest
waves broke me.
I was enamored
with being lonely,
impersonating a persona
of pristine perfection,
whilst gazing at pensive
gloaming showers,
wishing that
broken strings
of aesthetic violins,
would grant
me an allaying
silent
goodbye.
The night has a resonant
silence, but words within this
handwritten letter are too loud.
Without background m u s i c
I am no longer
a prisoner of memories,
silently sewing rustic rhythms
into a thunderous stubborn heart.
I remember storms,
when rain washed the paint
of fake smiles away..
I was lost in opaque puddles
floating like a porcelain paper boat,
struck by ruins of lightning at
a time when ink refused to bleed.
Abandoned in
pigments of black notes,
your birth changed the palette
of the colors of my love.
You inspired me to
be like melodic flowers,
blossoming together
in tones of delicate redolence.
Now seasonal songs
serenade your name,
in dawns of estival
summer formed rays.
I heard my iron heart beat
in your melodious laughter,
carving fruitful beginnings
from the curves of
your innocent gaze.
Now my poetry and
music have meaning,
as you're the
ink in my pen,
the line on my paper.
Allowing my quill to
weave sincere couplets,
between verses and phrases
that have substance.
Your initials are the
warmth of my soul,
inspiring me to
thrive and survive.
My topaz twilight,
my purpose,
now and hereafter.
You are my most
precious lullaby.
For, what is a tree
without branches
of succulent leaves?
When roots spurting
water and blood
merge as
revitalizing sonnets.
Maybe, you are
my karmic answer
to every prayer
I’ve whispered to the moon.
