resonanting flautando - Lauren M. Hancock

I’ve been becoming more the more I realise I don’t need to store those angsty jealous feelings there’s so much in store in life if I control their lack of desire lack of fire lack of attraction so much inaction and I find, I find that there’s no need for me to hide the precious parts of me to flautando over that fingerboard so softly spoken I can roar I can scream I can be everything I’ve ever wanted to be because the one the right one will see me truly for me and accept me –

Do I even need to be accepted? no… but it would be nice to be seen wholly. sometimes life is cut-throat, like glass to the apple of adam and eve cried cried cried but what say the world to telling the truth – what a strange device! dreamscapes of mine, yours and mine, dear loves, beckon to the field of my mind and travel me with until I can find and absorb the truest style vibrato resonates deep within and I can be myself all the while. Let us see what will present this time… enjoy the merry-go-round with me and lines and lines will file alongside one another with future occupants carrying devilish smiles.
