Words For You
When you cant decide,
what you’re feeling inside
You must change the scene,
and don’t let em’ say what their seeing
Ain’t good enough,
For you and me.
Come forward and tell me
what you see through
the screen of your life
and the body that holds you
But don’t let that define you,
its what you can’t see
but you’ll find if you listen.
The things you’ve been missin’
Ain’t good enough,
For you and me.
Come forward and tell me
You can be my lighthouse,
The one who makes
it time to finally let me see.
These read like song lyrics. Do you sing?

Yes, they are intended to be lyrics, however they just flow into my head, not sure from where. And yes I love to sing however I am no music producer, not quite sure how to set a melody, nor manipulate sound, perhaps one day! ☺️

The measure is swell. Have you ever recorded yourself reading a poem? (This is a leading question.)

I have not! I have recorded singing lyrics I’ve written but I just don’t enjoy the repetition in the sound of the one I did.. may have to try this one ☝🏼

Let’s try it first with you just reading it maybe with a bit of a lilt in the voice, like you wanna sing, but you’re at a open mic poetry event and you know they’d be like, “we want poems, not songs!” All rights are yours. I just like to play because I like to play. It’s the second reason we’re here.

Ah, boo to that (though I think that is probably a common ailment – I certainly go through phases). Welllllll, then maybe read or walk in circles or have a dance in the snow instead.

Just a guess. If you’re in America, I think there’s snow nearly everywhere this week. If you’re Australian or South African, though…
