A recent composition for your analytical ear, “Magical”. Lyrics below. It’s still a work in progress, but I’ll keep at it. It’s been so long since I’ve done a composition just ‘for me’ and not for an external purpose; feels good!
Magical by Julieanne Patmore
Verse 1
Trying to make sense of this new befuddling world
Who am I without prior purpose
Have I lost myself somehow
Conditioned to need something more
Self-imposed demands knocking at my door
But I’ve been this down before
Can I be whole like this
Do I need more
Am I selfish
Chorus
Sometimes its magical
Sometimes you frown
I tell myself
Don’t let the darkness get you down
Verse 2
Creating life, life’s been taken in a way
But, not gone
Replaced with a new reality
I wish you could tell me what you want
I wonder if you need more
I want to love this
Be fulfilled by this
Be enthralled by this
And sometimes
I am
