The Guitarist



This is a complex chap.
He composes the most beautiful, gentle music.

One can tell from his compositions that he must be the most sensitive soul.

But he has a shadow in his heart.
A terrible rift from years and years ago that has echoed through his life and which sometimes spills out with a  critical cutting edge.

Buried in his world of music making I believe he finds peace…. that, ever beside him, is his true self.
Open and free; soft and rounded, like his music.

I spot him sometimes, but his sharp edges have hurt me and others I love, so I simply make space and hope to be forgiven.
