When She (II)

When She Cries------------------------------------------------------------

Certain pieces of music
Always bring tears to her eyes
Even if joyfulness
Is all around...
Not because
The reminder is anyone
Or anything in particular
In fact, apparently
No reminder at all
That would come later on
It’s because that music
Literally
Moves her soul
And when that happens
She cannot help it
But cry
A huge world
Of inner agitation
Arises, and as she cries
She cries on...
And thoughts about
All the reasons
Why she’s cried
In all her life so long
Begin to burst out.

Some of the arts--Painting, Dance, Music, Meditation, Mime--can quite ably live on their own as Gifts from God to lift me out of the way from earthly tie-downs.

When performed in combination with other arts, e.g., words-painting-music-dance-drama, there is at times a greater impact on my psyche.

Of course, music can deepen a sadness, a memory, a hopeful thought. Or it can uplift my soul to a degree formerly unknown to me.

I love the music of NATURE, the birds, sounds of the sea, animals seemingly speaking with one another--or with their Peeps! Thunder, wind in trees, falling rain or snow--these are sounds which have no equal to me.

My deaf father used to put his hand on the body of my violin, to "hear" vibrations--music, to him. Being also blind, he "felt" sound, could sense the presence of another.

Hey, I'm writing a blog here...SORRY Dulce for using your space, to "SOUND" off!

Music has always been terrifically important to me, too. All kinds of music. And yes, it makes me cry sometimes, for sure. Wonderful stuff, Dulce!

I have always said that music is about emotion. I really don't like heavy metal stuff it always makes me agitated.

My past consists of enough tears to last a lifetime. But today I allow my emotions to be what they are and so from time to time I cry. I am human. It is all good. :)

I guess music is a gift from God. Music helps us to endure the storms of life or just to enjoy goodness. Music is in everything I do, and I wonder how would I live without it.

Music awakens my soul. I love to get in my car and drive, turning up the beat and feeling the wind blow in my hair. Other times, I enjoy listening to it in solitude, and I release the tears I've held in for a while. Beautiful post, speaks to my heart. Thanks, Dulce.

Music moves me this way, too.

I know music like that. It creates its own images. It pulls at the depths of the soul.
well said.

Shadow said...

music does that. makes you long for places you haven't been, for people you haven't met, for dreams not yet dreamt, for sights not yet seen...

heavealie said...

Crying like this always seems to me like a great release of pain for a woman. It is almost like seeing a woman go through a healing of sorts by crying.

Music reaches the soul so deeply. They speak the same language like nothing else...

These could have been my words, my twin...
