free and home again

this is an old path
that I'm dancing over
if I looked down maybe I'd see your footprints
walking in that one direction
I don't know where you're going
I just know that you're going

and this is an old chord
that I'm listening to
and pulling a melody out of
just like you pulled a melody out of me when you were still here

my eyes are closed
to welcome this feeling
familiar, lost and drifting
free and home again

Do you think so? I hadn't intended it to be sad. But then it was one of those things that came out unintended.

Now that I am actually reading it....you're right it IS sad, but not in a bad way I think.

Why is it easier to right sad/depressing words? I find it very difficult to write happy words without them sounding cheesy or stupid.
 
Well I am very flattered that evoked an emotion.

I think I will turn it into a lyric. Reading over it again, it reminds me of Tool lyrics. It is interesting how I unintentionally reflect the style of my favourite lyricists.

I noticed that you were writing a story, but I haven't had time to read all your older posts about it. I have all sorts of questions, which I will leave till later. But in the meantime: does it fit into a specific genre?
