"I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
I could sleep
when I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
when I lived alone
Is there a ghost in my house?
my house..."

'Is there a Ghost' by Band of Horses

Simple? Yes.
Catchy? Very.

I find it rather amusing how something so simple can be turned into art that is extraordinary. While sitting with my guitar this evening, I became a little frustrated trying to find lyrics with the music I have created. Music is easy to create when it is just me with the guitar/piano/various instruments. Poetry is easy when it just me with a pen and paper. To combine the two seems like a simple task, but most of the time it is extremely difficult. Maybe I think too hard about it? Maybe I am not thinking hard enough? Maybe I just need to wait until summer starts in order to have time for ideas to come together? Hopefully these ideas come hand in hand. For now, I will play. For now, I will write. Let them both come as one. Someday.
