A Goodman Writes Dec 2020
In a flash
A piece of light's glory
Tears a streak
Through the dimmed bue-grey sky
For a moment
I am entranced
By this brilliant luminous stroke
Charging to life its dull canvass
A Goodman Writes Aug 2020
The fragrance of music wafts up my nose;
Vanilla-sweet flavours flood my brain;
The vocables like cherry on top a beautiful cake;
Voice like velvet wraps my skin.

The lyrics ease me in
Like a hogged-out body in a hot bath.
The notes like honey on my lips
I can't stop licking.

The instrumentals send tingles all over;
I feel my skin buzzing with static.
Keys in neon lights dance around me
In the dark of my mind.

I sway with the rhythm
Like the miniature creatures atop the sea surface.
I ascend up the scales:
The stairs leading to pyschedelia.

Through my ears
It pervades my senses in whole
I am overwhelmed
By the powerful symphony.
Music is powerful
A Goodman Writes Jul 2020
One step at a time,
We will break down our walls
And build bridges over the chasms made by loss.
One step at a time,
We will unmount our defenses;
We will rediscover the long forgotten paths of love.
And piece by piece,
We will reinvigorate our hearts;
Those cold, deserted hinterlands
Will be warm lively wonderlands once more.
Step by step,
We will close the gap between our souls
Till out hearts are close enough for an embrace.
All of my cracks and hollows you will see;
And the skeletons in your closets you will reveal.
The joy and pain we will share;
And together, we will face our fears.
I'll give in to you and you to me
Darling won't you come to me?
How long shall we continue to hold on to pain?
Come, let us take that leap,
The baggages of pasts heartbreaks, we will forfeit.
Let us fight, let us strive.
Let us love once again.
A Goodman Writes Jul 2020
I lie here,
In the cold, cruel darkness
With only your song as companion.
I hear the tones beckon to me;
Your music wraps around my conscious;
With delight I give myself to it;
Soon, mind is lost from body
As the sound of your melody
Pulls me further away
From the dungeon called reality
To a place of refuge
Made from the warmth of your voice.
And in this transient haven,
I forget the feeling of 'lonely'.
