Drum Beat - Heart Beat by Telophase
A was talking to a friend of mine last night about the many things that are going on in my head and as quiet as she remained at the time, I woke up to her sending me this amazing piece of writing that echoes exactly what I’m going through. It’s a toughie, this one, and it helps sometimes to know that a someone else has felt the same way. I’ve been going through the stuff she’s written, and I find her to be a very sensitive writer. Kinda like our Gyppo, who knows exactly how to hit a raw nerve. Super stuff.
On another note, I can never acknowledge who this is for, but I know that they will read it at some point. And for me, that’s enough I guess.
This heart beats to the rhythm of your beat
Then crashes with a roar
Now your drums, they play off beat
And I just can’t take the hint
I think….maybe…not so
Oh what does this leaping heart know?
Won’t beat in time when you play so slow
Where did your spirit go?
Can’t hear your beat, once my retreat,
You want to play so slow
The notes you hit are low
Like the emptiness below
Like your drum with hollow notes
Never cared for words or votes
So in silence we will go
Yes you’ve mastered all alone
Those sounds of silence that echo…
I read it TMS and I’m flatterred and all, but it will just never work out. Sorry about that. x
Trust you to be able to make me smile in the middle of a dark day, RD. But alas, I think this all began with your repeated public declaration that you like me, innit?
Tremendous loss is often unfelt when tremendous blessings were never recognized to begin with….
strange…the beauty of it all….
