Day 292: Unwrapped

As the piano music filled the room, the fireplace lay cold for now. It was still warm outside only beginning to slow down bit by bit. For now, the humming of the piano string and the warm glow of the Christmas lights on the tree gave the room more meaning that it has when no one fills them. I believe warmth is often experienced on the inside and in the company of friends. Such is the nature of this company that isn't planned, that comes from the pure absence of need. I have been fascinated by this nature of  something being important even if it is not necesserily needed somehow and so tonight I write about this simple thought as people around the world return home while some start their day.

Unwrapped
I come unwrapped in the songs that you play
I am music sheets that you read but music that gets away
I am a long ride to destinations near or far
I am unquestioned travel to places, no matter where we are

Come quiet down for a while, pause with nothing on your mind
Draw me a roadmap to you, so that you are easy to find
Sometimes the warmest moments come in these unplanned companies
The unexpected stops we take as I find you & you sometimes find me

I write with in this very hope, that those things that might get away
Have been written down, thought about and recorded some ways
Those who start their days today or some that end one tonight
I hope you find a fresh start or simply an escape, a warm sleep this night

 Yes we are all just restless, we are both hard and easy to catch
We are shades of colors that blend together and yet impossible to match
Some paint the walls with me, write and scribble on doors
Come teach me how to dance, with footsteps that come alive on these floors

At the beginning my story lay
                      with a fireplace and a piano that simply played
