"Musical Solitude"

Have you ever closed your eyes
And listened to the music
The chorus line of life
constantly playing out of tune

An orchestrating moment
Plays freely in the distance
As our personal private theme
Of a daily catastrophe

No strings, no brass
Just a jumble of notes protruding
Through the cracks in our decisions
Ones that predetermine lines

Lines that we follow
In the hope they know direction
But the way is becoming frayed
Through the wear of use and time

Left to take our chances
We reach out for hands to hold
While altogether praying
No one touches back at all
