"Others cut with blades
I cut myself with music
filled with memories"
i agree, there's nothing better to be hearing oldies to lighten up the day.
thank you for sharing!
good luck in the contest!

    thank you, but I fear it is darker than that. The music cuts deep by freshening memories of loves, friends, and chances long lost.

After reading your second poem I couldn`t help myself but read more of your stuff, I`m glad I came to this one. It is just as powerful as the other one, special approach and unique style of building up this kind of a poem. Bravo!

    I'm glad you thought enough of my efforts to seek out more. Thanks.

    I'll be publishing a book of poetry here soon I call "Memorystones", like kidneystones, but in the mind, and much harder to pass, based on my experiences in war.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Some actually cut themselves
Sometimes using a dull knife
Sometimes using a Sharp blade
Sometimes a musicians tune
Can cut just the same
If you look into your soul
You will do the same
Welcome to a fanstory
I'm out, but glad you came
Am

Music is much less painful than blades...
It does fill the ears and soul with sounds.

Music is sorrow or joy, it is hatred or love.
It can invoke feelings that we didn't know existed.

Nice 5-7-5 about music; healing as opposed to harmful.

It must be a painful journey of music.A sad music about a long lost loved one?
It is a good one.You attempted a different concept on cutting and it is creative.
Thanks for sharing.

A much wiser choice than blades is music. Music is a language we can all understand. You have put together a lovely image here. Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest.

By far my preferred method of tormenting myself...often with blues or music requiring beer...

Great form, right on the prompt.

Good luck with this...honest, original and dare I say? cutting. :) Carrie
