This was Once upon a time

I am sitting here crying

for a fault that ain't mine

I'd much rather be looking down from a cliff

slowly dying

I pause to remember, looking at you through a hole in the glass

your face so brightly lit

the painted smiles

the loving juveniles

I can hear the glasses clink

the necklines dropping

the skirts rising

the smiles turning into grins

the wishes escalating

I don't think anyone there knows

that you are only pretending

that behind the warm welcome

you are only loathing

I can see you trying hard

to tell me to leave, to wish me away,

to ask me to stop crying, trying, loving..

now I say, I give you up to the world

that aches for a piece of you

I will give it all I have

to see you through

you say you want freedom

from the clutches of glum

I put it on the table for you

Gave you my share of happiness too

but don't you see you are all that I have

why do you want that too?

Talk to her...

So you and your woman are in sync now and now is the time to go beyond the physical appeal. now is the time to get her know her as a person. to do that, you need to know her language. its not confined within the world of alphabets. she speaks the language of Solfege. Start by the rules and as you master it, let go and play along with her.

The notes can be dramatized to bring about maximum effect and you might just be able to make music if she likes the way you speak to her .... Godspeed! - Lesson 2

Give unto thee - for the love of someone who is a part of me ...

I have always loved musical instruments and wondered at how science and math can touch us deep down even with all its technicality intact.

let me admit, that i have tried some musical instruments and none of them call to me and likewise. Violin was never on my mind, not for any particular reason, however, by some strange co incidence or signal i knew that , i was meant to learn just her - my violin.

Lesson 1 : unlike vocal artists, the ones who pursue musical instruments have to first learn to give their body to the instrument. the journey to the soul is an advanced stage. take any instrument: the flute, the drums, the guitar and the violin - your body has to get used to it - the posture, the co ordination, the strain... as far as the violin is concerned.. its takes time to give in...

once you get those basics right, usually on the same day, you learn the GDae [the chords/strings - don't know the difference yet, if there is one]. you learn how the bow glides, the arch, the straight line, the equilibrium, the pressure points... you learn how to caress it and you have to learn to know them well otherwise, she will never give in.. some woman she is !

you should take an entire week to know your woman at this stage. know which part of her body is called what, how she likes to be touched... small talk everyday for about fifteen twenty minutes and as you profess your love to her, she will profess hers...

Until next week..
