Poetry Thursday again.
It has been such a long time since I have writen a poem.
I don't know if this one is much of a poem, but I decided to write it since this weeks topic defines an important part of my life.
Finding the Lost Tune
I had a lost melody in my mind
which had tormented me for quite a long time.
I only knew the melody,
didn’t know any of the words,
didn't know who wrote it,
who sang it,
where and when had I heard it.
At times it was a tune so distant,
like it had carried over from another world,
at other times it was so present,
so relevant to this world
that I truly believed that one day
I would solve the puzzle,
and find out what song it was.
That day came when I was walking down the ocean,
because everything great happens by the ocean.
I was walking with a man who
I didn’t know would grow to mean so much to me.
I was humming my puzzle tune.
Soon he started humming it,
Soon he started singing it,
Soon I found out what song it was.
I never knew it was as simple as this:
“Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence”.
I had found the lost tune.

great poem for not writing one in a long time.
I like that - how the man who will become important to you is partially so for helping you find that "puzzle tune." Very sweet.
