The dawn of the guitar

The dawn of the guitar

 

 

Six feet away stood my guitar

As love it stood not that close, six feet seems so far

 

Six strings each has its own tunes, others can't repeat

Ironic it may seem … six strings and six feet

 

Sinful

Yet beautiful

Violent

Yet silent

Is my guitar

 

3:11 am empty sounds of street

3:11 am sounds of my bear feet

Moving towards the guitar

 

I can smell my last cigarette… still I can taste the tar

Close I got, asleep is the world … asleep is my guitar

 

If dawn faster has come…and darkness came to end

I'll play until I fall asleep… no tears will I descend

 

But tired I am … for two days I'm sleepless

Silence of the night has made me speechless

And speechless is my guitar

Musical talent is the one thing I'm envious of... I have none. Love this poem... reminds me of the shifting faces of the muse... sometimes the melodies flow... at others there is just silence...

I wish I could learn to play a guitar. Words and music are the perfect combination. You could change the world. Look at Edwin Starr. His song war still stand against the desire of war 40 years later. I could feel the loneliness and sadness in the words. To be able to play a guitar should be a friend to bring back hope and dreams. A excellent poem.
