Realistical Music Making

by Matt Forget

As I lay here in my bed

What is this melody I see?

Staring toward me

Like music notes on sheet music

Watching my eyes follow each rhythmic beat

 

Play out loud

The tones you ring

The tunes you often sing

As closer as you come to me

The tempo rising fast

 

Crescendo to metso-forte

As the melody moves on

The space between us gone

For rising to high staccato notes

Simple yet so satisfying

 

Forte we rise

Sweat pours off my head

Faces turning red

As the duo performance of the evening

Coming to a finale

 

Fortissimo! Where there!

The crash, the boom

Filled the room

Silence as the end was there

Our concert of the evening was a success
