My Heart is Longing
Played: 79 | Download | Duration: 00:00:25
Last night, barbershop practice was amazing. The members of my new quartet are experienced singers and heartfelt musicians. We disect the music, the structure of each chord. We focus carefully on vowel shapes, dipthongs, tone color, and interpret arrangements soulfully.
I sing bass. Our lead is amazing. His voice is warm and melodic, and he looks the part. We are competitive, planning for district competition.
Yet, I don't like barbershop sometimes. Why do the songs have to be so real?
Here's the bass part of a tag we ended with last night:
My love wants a home. I try not to think about that and want it too much. It wasn't me who picked this as the last song before I went home alone.

Oh Steve. You've read my blog. We all have loss of love in our lives. Mine just happened to die. That's not any different that someone leaving. In fact - it's very similar. And it's been three years for me - I have so much love to give, it frightens me, and then I sometimes give it to the wrong people and THAT doesn't go well either. Today, I know that if I am patient, I will get everything that I need. Perhaps not all that I want, but everything I need. And if that means someone to receive all the love I have, then I'll get it. And until then, I practice this thing called patience that breaks my heart just a little more each day.
Hang in there.
