I am going to compose…

The greatest piano piece I have ever written.
I have already composed the base of the tune, and in about a week, with enough effort.. it should be completely complete and the greatest piano piece to ever come from my soul and fingers.
What does it take to compose for me? Well, a really heart felt feeling. I mean, when I sit at the piano.. I am not just sitting there. I am transforming into a completely different being, and really, there is no way to escape it until the piece is completely finished. I have never really taken the time to sit down and write a full piece, but I think by doing this it will release a lot of anger and sadness I may have inside. You see, music is my way to feel. And by composing music, I let go of all the things I have kept inside for so long. No, this is not a sob story. It is just the truth, and I feel I have the right to share it on my own blog. My music, is what keeps me believing, it is what gets me up every morning, and it is what makes me who I am today. There is nothing in my life that I love more than music; and there most likely never will be. Of course, there is going to be that one person that I really fall in love with, and if I ever have children of course I am going to love them more than anything. But music, that is just a completely different love all together. Music is what completes me. I have the greatest gift in the world. I am just so fucking lucky to be a musician. And many others are too.
You know, I don’t even really play piano. I took lessons when I was like eight. But I hate lessons, cause I hate people telling me what to do… so I quit. And though I am not a quitter, this just had to be done. So anyways, now I can learn a song by watching someone else play it. And then once I’ve got it down, I put my own feel to it and make it music instead of just copying someone else. So when I begin to compose a piece like what I am beginning now…. the feeling I get is unreal. It’s like, I feel so fucking accomplished, you know?
Thanks for reading whores.
