I come here to hear some entertainment,
a way to temporarily put my present aside
the big baby begins to harmonize
and she is so grand
and he knows the right keys to play.
I succumb to the seductive sounds,
the beautiful baby grand steals my mind from the present time
and brings me to a place filled with past pleasures;
recounting my fire side endeavors
and blissfully remembering the girl who won my heart.
I came here to hear entertainment,
but left here with answers and understanding
in a mere few hours:
my soul has been awakened
and I found reasons to travel further on life's path.
Author notes
I figured I would delve into the mind of an audience member and get his perspective. I suppose there's nothing else to say at this point, but "Honesty,
is hardly ever heard,
but mostly what I need from you."
