Ode to a Mixed CD

by AllHailTheHeartbreaker   Jul 30, 2007


I want to listen to all the songs
On this mixed CD
So I can memorize the words you hear
When you think about me.

All the chords pour out your soul
Every chorus speaks your mind
It is the soundtrack of my heart
From each note to every rhyme.

I'm finding a sudden comfort
In someone else's voice
It's like you're speaking through another
With this rhythmic noise.

I'd like to learn all the verses
And sing along with the lyrics
So I would be reminded of you
Every time I hear it.

I want to honor every lyricist
Who was able to write out your heart
And silently thank each composer
For his brilliant work of audible art.

I'll blast the music with unyielding pride
From the speakers on my stereo
Hopefully you'll hear it, too
And then you will know.

I realize that I love you
Because of this mixed CD
And now I'm burning one for you
So you can feel the same about me.

    "All the chords pour out your soul
    Every chorus speaks your mind

    ^Wonderful stanza. I liked the idea of a seeming connection between an object (CD) and person (lover). It did appeal to me.

    "And now I'm burning one for you
    So you can feel the same about me."

    ^Fascinating. The metaphor of burning a CD to portray the smoldering passion within the subject captivated my senses.

    You've written this piece nicely on the whole. Certain lines need tightening-up, in order to augment the flow; whereas, it's not really a big deal anyway. Nice one, nevertheless. :) Keep it up!

    Take care,
    Marian
