few other bits and bobs........
my style?.....Gentle ballad(ish) fingerpicking
Influences.....David Gray, Paul Weller, Get cape wear cape fly,zep, loads of others
i like to write poetry, but have a serious block when it comes to putting music to it, in the 15 years i've been playing i never got the knack
here's a bit of my work.....
Again a silent scream splits the night
The black velvet rent by dream's keen blade
And by the memories that nail my feet to the floor
I will not fly again, this decision i have made
The wasteland awaits, is calls so sweet, it beckons me
My winter at last shall be my souls desire
With the taste of You upon my bleeding lips
I shall cast my being into the fire
Resigned, defeated, no will , no courage left
The tarnished remains of my shining thoughts
Become the fools gold i clench in my fist
The reward my wants and desires have bought
There i will wait for the finale, my never ending solstice
Eternity calls my name, leading to infinity
With eyes wide open, stained with salt water diamonds
I will wait for the darkness to comfort me
......................................................................................................
so....nice to meet y'all and hope to share more
all the best for now

Welcome to Chordie! Glad you're participating. Not sure how often you post on forums....I would never publish my phone number. Just me though. ![]()

hi kajir, welcome to poems
i agree with BGD, that it's never a good idea to put your phone no on line, you could get bombarded with calls from spammers or even nut-jobs. chordie has an email service so members can email you while retaining your privacy, so i'd recomend you edit your no out and invite members to email you if they're in you locale.
now to your poem; nice work, deep yet vivid! i can see why it might be difficult to put to music, but you can invite attempts by other members to put music to it.
dont be a stranger, lets see some more
