Strung Out

Like strings on a guitar, you composed a siren song

each chord progression concise and masterfully strummed

intermezzos composition conducted to rhythm of jazzy blues

orchestrated under a fully acoustic half lit darkly moon

my untuned eyes did not see the sheet music had been played

by the heartbreaker maestro of a million sad concertos

I love this line: "the heartbreaker maestro of a million sad concertos." When I read it I could totally hear my favorit ones playing in my head. The imagery is fantastic. And the message is very well laid inbetween such beautiful lines. Sometimes we lose site of/ or fail to see/ the danger ahead, because we get so caught up in the moment. Very well written.
