Classical Music

A poem for those that love to feel...

Classical Music

~Missy Lorraine~

The pleasure, oh the pleasure

how it rushes through me;

my body and my very soul

it overwhelms me!

The sweetness of it

burns in my heart

tearing it into a million pieces,

throwing it into the dark obis.

Its greatness makes

my soul shudder

bringing it to sweet tears,

filling it with longing.

Never before have I felt this

urge to embrace destiny

with all my strength

and fiery being.

Torrents of sadness crash 

into me in great big waves

bringing with it the wish

to be released from the world.

It brings back memories

of bitter loss and luscious love;

it wills me to look

deep within myself.

A tinkling so like rain

makes my heart light and fluttery;

a smile of joy spreads across my lips

and my eyes begin to sparkle.

My eyes narrow then and my

fists clench with crimson rage;

an incurable anger taints me

 and I must somehow shed blood.

A glorious booming interrupts my rage

and brings me to my feet;

the pounding drum in my ear

makes me delirious with proudness.

A slow gentle waltz calms me

and makes me sway to the lazy beat,

humming along with the melody,

a peacefulness overcomes me.

So beautiful it all is,

I sigh with contentment.

Author's Note

I had written this a few years ago as an experiment, but never thought it was good enough to put on writers cafe. Now I have changed my mind and figured that you all could decide if it is good or not. Hope it is not too painful to read. Thank you!

The poem is very good. The above lines are my favorite. I love music. I like good voices and story. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

This is very good and if this was an experiament....then experiment more. Funny, I was watching Behind the Music - Deep Purple, last night and never realized that their keyboardist, John Lord, was classically trained...best of both worlds I suppose. Very nice.
