Torn Chakra



For My (then) AP Wife Torn Chakra
the songs are written- two versions even...
I just don't have a good recording yet!
Be patient, some of us have a steeper hill to climb than others...

 

 
 


Author notes

For my AP 'bride'!

and take a guess as to what her name is?

That's right- Torn Chakra! (you are so smart!)

Backdrop: Now Torn sang a song to me on Yahoo's IM, so I promised to sing one back to her...  she might not remember, however, she was pretty schloshed at the time...!

So this song begins soft, slow, and romantic. Then gets stormy. Then mysterious. Then falls into despair. Then goes back to soft and romantic* just like my AP bride. So if you can imagine all that while you're reading...

It's simple because it's lyrics! Famous quote: "That which is too stupid to say is sung!"

Note: the 'they just don't make 'em like this anymore' line at the end is not part of the poem... I was thinking of the music! Maybe I could change it to 'like her anymore...' hmmm...

but I begged for a week to practice, it is a difficult piano piece... and I don't play that much anymore!

*what do you want from a song made from as instrumental... and all under 2 minutes!

    hello, my hot and sassy grandaughter! (Oops, people can see this! the scandal!) By font darker do you mean lighter, as in a darker lighter, or do you mean darker darker, as in darker darker and not whiter, as in hotter? (oops, there I go again! )

    Thanks, Suffering, glad you liked my bit of romance here! How it works- in many ways! Mine was a contest- looking for an AP hubby. (See how the girls have to do everything these days?!!!)

    Thanks ricochet for the insight- but you know what they say about lyrics- "that which is too stupid to say is sung!" (at least the music to this is complicated!)

    I liked: the innovation. I really like the mixture of graphics and text. Great idea.

    I dislike: the novelty of this. Okay, so this is good for one read. Probably not for two.

    What a sweet thing! Oh, how I love these romantic stories! ^.^ You two seem to have a lot going with each other, and it's such a lovely thing to know. Torn Chakra is a very lucky girl, that's for sure!

    Best of wishes to you both!

    Ah yes but folks who know about chakra might see hidden thoughts behind this, It makes me kinda sad that is her name, Hopefully since she now has you, things will be better

    Damn...it just wouldn't come off the featured box!!! Sorry...had to click it.

    Aww this is beautiful! I'm glad Jess liked it, but I'd be quite shocked if she didn't.
    I love the "format" of it...kof computer geek kof...but hell, I don't even know you. Well, not really.

    It's so sweet of you to write this for her. I don't think I mind you that much. Good luck practicing! I bet she can't wait to hear you sing it.

    Ooh, original. XD That's all I can say for this piece; original. I love how... how do I put this? How you formatted your poem into an image; ingenius (?) And it's sweet how you made it for your AP bride. XD Anyway, loved it, wish I had made it.

    Well, Drake, I did consider how the girls were going to be jealous, but I failed to take into account how demanding that other gender is!

    A lucky lady she must be to have someone do something like this for her. I know she will be thrilled and realize how fortunate she is to have you. Best of luck in mending the tear.

    Nice piece. Pretty neat how it was designed as well. I'm sure it would make a very beautiful song. Good job!

    Wow, this is wonderful! I reread it as you suggested, and I could almost hear the music in the background. It provokes alot of emotions, some unpleasant, others soothing... all in all, a very enjoyable piece. Thanks for sharing ^.^

    Awwww thank you sweetheart! That's great; and you know me all too well! LOL! Great job! I can't wait to hear you sing this; I feel bad though because I can't write songs so you'll never hear anything I wrote! LOL! I need a songwriter to help me out I guess. LOL!

    Hugs
