We'll touch upon different processes, finding inspiration, the muse, metaphor, simile, music and poetry theory, and more.
This song was inspired by "walking trees", which will uproot themselves in search of sunlight. It's a great example of a first draft - I'm already thinking of variations, like changing it to third person POV versus first. Enjoy!
Lyrics:
Trying to reach the sun before it goes down
Trying to raise these roots, they’ve grown so heavy now
It’s so cold, it’s so cold
And I feel so alone
I’m on my way, I’m on my way
I’m reaching forward towards your face
I can’t wait to see you smile
I can’t wait, no I can’t wait
To feel the warmth of your embrace
And feel the light after all these miles
I’m on my way
The shadows are my friends
But I must say goodbye
It’s time for me to go
I’ll see them all next time
I’ve grown old, I’ve grown old
And I’ve got to go home
I’m on my way, I’m on my way
I’m reaching forward towards your face
I can’t wait to see you smile
I can’t wait, no I can’t wait
To feel the warmth of your embrace
And feel the light after all these miles
I’m on my way
It’s hurts- my leaves have grown dry
My head’s low trying to reach high
Branches weak looking for light
Ready to leave the darkness behind
