Rooftop Poem

So, this is more me trying to write lyrics to help my good friend Lauren produce her own album. So, as a side note, to the two of you who read this, follow her on twitter and do what you can to help. Please?

Anyway, I'll show you the poem, since I know you are dying to read it.


-----------------------

Close your eyes.
Open yourself to the world around you.
Can you feel it?
Feel the life of the city.

Let the pulse resonate
Listen to your heart and notice
Its matching time.

The beat of the city,
The sound of the world
Of hopes, of dreams,
Of doubts, of fears
Of love, of loathing
The sound of life.

Thousands of souls swarm around you,
Tilt your head back to the sky
And feel their touch.

Their pain, their joy
Their triumphs, their failures
Their laughter, their tears,
It's the miracle of life.

Everyones got a story to share,
Simply take a moment to listen

And join yourself to this human race.

----------------------

So, writing lyrics is something I have zero experience with, so this kinda ended up as a half poem half song. I like the idea of it, but not how it turned out. I may play around with it later. 

Well, I'm tired. Crimson Nights turned out to be a disappointment, but I have a troop tomorrow. I get to wear my anakin costume that I ((just about)) finished!! Pictures once I get a camera!
