“If music be the food of love, play on”
― William Shakespeare
He played a riff on my soul
where all emotions danced to his tunes
and my heart swayed to his strings
He looked me in my eyes
and the world stopped turning
He played the chords and
strung my heart along
my heart skipped a beat
and danced to his gaze
He played a riff on my soul
his voice chased
all the demons in me
and cleansed me again
to become pure
He played a riff on my soul
as his fingers glide on the guitar
it lit my emotions on fire
as he playing on my soul
and arousing all my desires
He played a riff on my soul
We swayed along and
our hearts strung together
not the world, not the melody matters
when your mind enters the trance
I still to this day remembers
when he played a riff on my soul.

Riff

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.

This is perfectly played. Love the idea of ‘riffs on my soul’. Music does that. Love does that and the two belong together in perfect harmony (pun intended) 🙂
