    One of those phases when things take a change
    Somebody broke the musical range
    It got set off, disturbed, made from broken ground
    No longer can I hear the familiar sound.

    I wish life was smooth and flowing
    Just being confident and always knowing.
    Feeling the pick stride across six strings
    And hearing the harmony it always sings.

    But thats what makes it beautiful and catching
    When those notes are perfect and matching.
    Where there seems no changing, there is some
    To forsee it is where all humanity is numb.

    Maybe you plucked the string too hard
    Or maybe the stiff thread has been jarred.
    Some thing was cut short, taken out
    Now the scale exists without.

    Nothing is asked but to adjust and conform
    To sittuate yourself to a comfortable norm.
    But I found new strings for replace
    A better, newer, and stronger silver lace.

    We may not be prepared or have control
    Of everything of moving energy as a whole.
    Still apart of the moving pattern
    Our power to sit back and learn.

    Tightening that new note into its part
    A new balance and a new start.
    Everything is so interdependent and timed
    Like a song written and rhymed.

    You'll pluck that first sound real slow
    Feeling that emotional high I want to know.
    Life keeps moving, lows and highs
    Hearing and feeling each sound's sighs.

    If interested in an older peice of work which is probably aged about a year, go to Poetry.com and search up Surname: Curran, First name K. The poem title is Distance of the Stars.

    That's really clever.....using the guitar as a metaphor for life...

    Or did I just totally fuck up and get that whole concept wrong?

    Totally saw the meaning. That makes me happy, lets me know that the message was clear. :)

    Thank you!
