Misconstrued Thoughts : Yesterday's Misconstrued Thoughts Today

This whole thinking alike thing man, we gotta stop it. I wrote a song at work the other day, started singing it. I've been listening to a lot of jazz standards (thanks Brother Kenner!!) and that's kind of what influenced this song. Now all I need to do is learn to play: the piano, sax, drums, and muted trumpet and I can bring this baby to life. Oh yeah, I'll need to learn to sing too. And learn to compose and conduct symphonies. But anyway, here's my creative writing.

When you're around, I don't know what to say.
And if you asked me, I couldn't tell you my name.
I don't always know what to say and do.
But I know these three words,
I love you.
Saxophone Solo (yeah, just pretend)
(Chorus)
So much these days isn't true,
So many people would agree,
that to say the words I love you
is easier than believing you love me

You make me smile whenever I think of you
I suppose this is what my parents warned me of
Its so much like a dream that's come true
Because now I've finally found someone to (hold note)
Love
(Chorus)
Muted Trumpet Solo (keep pretending)
Someone to(hold note)
Love.
(Slow string ending)
And that's how I pass the time at work. Well, other than lifting heavy stuff.

Ha ha...you used "tad" in a song. Go hide in shame!

NoBodD

HAHAAHA!! And you read it. Foolish mortal.

Tad? what are you talking about DA? I would never place that in a song... Or name a group TAD.

Ah the power of the internet... much greatness in saving yourself.

Vain and Mortal, I'll be your portal.

ahhh my first post on creative writing thursday... my first and prolly my last for a while.. i'm not very creative with words! hehe but i finally finished my poetry class so maybe i can display a bit of mine...

AND THE TITLE WILL REMAIN UNRECALLED

following your footsteps in the sand
dont' know why you used to make my skin crawl
and though it's hard for me to admit
the memory of your voice, your stare, your hair
makes my daft heart skip a beat

but

when i remember how you lied, i'm mad
mad i beleived every word you said
and though it's hurts to make you go
the pain you've caused is striking slow

to you i was just a toy
but now you've broken me
now you're satisfied
so used and abused
just walk away, go find another, play again
but now vengence is mine
but i'll take my time

because

when i remember how you lied, i'm mad
mad i beleived every word that you said
and though it's hard to make you go
the pain you've cause is striking slow

but i'm finally moving on
all my dreams of us are gone
out the window,
becuase your perfunctory heart
crushed my vintage intuition
but now when i see you
i can smile YOUR deceptive smile

because

when i remember how you lied, i'm mad
mad i beleived every word that you said
and though it's hard to make you go
the pain you've caused is striking slow

so

when i read this I think you should write more

because

the pain you've caused is striking slow

because

the arrangement of flow is interesting so

[soft clapping]

i'm with jerm...

Darcie should write more...

maybe next Thursday

ahh... but that one took a long time to write!

i've had that in my back pocket for a year or so:)

trying to get it better...

but i do think i have a sort of funny one to get better for next week...

a song i wrote for the band Watered down... hehe..
