Hi. Thinking of putting this to an acoustic guitar melody someday.

Comment after reading I would appreciate it and thank you in advance!



"Solace after Rain"

Drenched in rain you make your way back home,
But your mood is anything but content.
Raincoats off and your keys tossed upon the bed
Feeling lost, betrayed, done in, and mostly spent.
You see a number on the nightstand and you rise,
Clutch the paper in your hand and dial a cell,
On the other end a voice says “Hello.”
You say “I’m drowning here. Life’s not going well.”
Fifteen minutes later, a knock comes at your door
You open it and fall into my arms.
Time spent talking time spent healing, and you smile
“Can you keep me and my heart safe from harm?”
Truthfully I don’t know what lies ahead,
But I know that I don’t want to be alone.
So I take your hand and we recline on the bed,
Something budding and I hope it grows and grows.
Chorus:
I’ll take your pain,
I’ll take your strife,
And I’ll replace it
With my light
As long as you hold tight to me
For warmth

wrote this when I was single, and showed it to the one who has my heart. She loved it, but wants to hear it with my guitar melodies over it.

someday, someday. Preferably after I get better at playing and vocalizing at the same time cuz right now I am the definition of more rusty than a muscle car junker.

But maybe I'll get there someday.

gosh I hope im not having this convo with myself....

Gosh where is everyone tonight? lol
