Sie versuchte, wie immer, zu lächeln, doch es war kein ehrliches Lächeln. Ihre Mundwinkel hoben sich, doch der Ausdruck ihrer Augen blieb leer, gleichgültig. Sie tat es nur, um den lästigen Nachfragen nach ihrem Befinden zu entgehen. Eine Antwort darauf hätte sie auch gar nicht geben können. Etwas beschäftigte sie; nagte an ihr; stahl ihr die Freude am Leben. Schon seit vielen Monaten begleitete sie das Gefühl, nicht mehr sie selbst zu sein. Ihre Gedanken rasten, drehten sich um Alles und Nichts. Gedanken, bei denen sie sich nicht sicher war, ob es überhaupt ihre eigenen waren. Es machte sie wahnsinnig. Ihre Hände verkrampften, als sie sah, wie er zurücklächelte. Innerlich begann sie vor Wut zu kochen, denn sie wusste, sein Lächeln war ebenso falsch wie ihres.  An manchen Tagen war es so schlimm, dass sie ihm am liebsten komplett aus dem Weg gegangen wäre. Seine Nähe wurde ihr immer unangenehmer. Manchmal hätte sie ihm einfach gerne für dieses Lächeln ins Gesicht geschlagen. Wie sehr sie es hasste, von ihm bemitleidet zu werden...
Doch noch viel mehr hasste sie sich selbst für diesen Hass. Woher kam er? Seit wann ist er da? Warum ist sie so leicht reizbar? Weshalb waren ihre Emotionen so unberechenbar geworden? Ihr Kopf war kurz davor zu platzen.

So konnte es nicht weitergehen. Etwas musste sich ändern. Es müsste sofort geschehen, bevor sie vollständig die Kontrolle über sich verliert. 

Doch sollte sich das als schwierig erweisen, denn ihr Verstand gehörte schon lange nicht mehr ihr allein...

Rondò

This is another fun toon which I hope will get you boppin a bit. It's some tongue in cheek rock n roll / cowpunk relationship counselling from legendary Aussie band the Beasts of Bourbon. Written by guitarist Kim Salmon.

I used my new parlour guitar to play this one. I was quite happy with the jangly chords which I think really suit the tune.

Lyrics: Modern Times by IPG1
Verse 1
Am I playing the wrong game —- where losing’s a crime Time’s just not the same—-and there’s no one here to blame In these modern times——where machines reigns supreme breaking all the chains——-to fulfill my dreams ————And that’s a solid —because—- yeah—— I’m back————- Metaphors and rhymes——-my weapons on this track Modulating -from the underground ——one culture one voice And we’re —-wired in like teeth—-like we—-ever—-had a choice Chorus Modern times---- a difficult maze Where screens captivate —— the Information Age And—-We're all connected——yet we’re—also——-alone Lost in a sea of pixels----hearts ———-—cold as stone Modern times————Modern times ——-Modern times

Verse 2 Smartphones--at our side—-our constant companions That double-edged sword—-has become ——-part of the norm buzzing Notifications——like a relentless swarm Distracting —us ——-from moments —-another task ——to perform Just another monster ———taking physical form

**Chorus** Bridge Artificial intelligence--- a marvel and a threat Replacing human minds--- leaving us —-deep in debt Algorithms —-determine our fate—without regret—- Like marionettes ———or puppets on a strings Manipulating our thoughts——damn—we are feeding these things

Verse 3 Social media——-a stage ——for the soul to bare Beneath the surface——lies ——and deceptions —-are clear We curate our lives——-like a perfect facade our true selves———pushed aside ——in total disregard

**Chorus** Outro In this digital age---we must find our way Embracing the power——with a huge price to pay There’s a balance for the screens —-in real life With the key to our future——a new vision insight

Welcome friends and to my profile! I hope to celebrate 300 original tracks on Soundcloud this year!  Thank you for listening and helping me in my musical journey. It has been a difficult year for me personally. Yet, musically, I believe I am writing some of my best music.  I am infinitely inspired and humbled by the extraordinary creativity I hear from your music each day and the wonderful friends I have encountered from every part of the world! THANK YOU! I am so very grateful for your support and the gift of music in my life!
 
What Inspires Me...I am inspired each day to compose music that touches and connects the listener in meaningful ways that are personal to their own experiences and feelings.  I believe what the world needs is more songs about love for all living things and the earthly treasures around us. The power of love is magical, mysterious, and miraculous!  And, it is essential to our survival like water and the air we breathe.  I believe that through the universal language of music, love can heal, bring joy, and create an invisible chain that pulls all of us together, not apart.  

A Little About Me...I started composing in 2016  after not touching the piano for many years. A career, raising a family and just every day life got in the way of making music. After retiring as a music teacher in the public schools, I started dreaming of playing the piano again and my years of classical training slowly came back to me. I love every genre of music, and the talent and creativity on SoundCloud has inspired me at every level!

For those of you who follow me on Soundcloud, I have been experimenting with adding tracks to my piano compositions.  I create and record everything myself using a Yamaha 660DGX, including the instrumental tracks built into the keyboard. Then, I edit on my laptop using Sony Sound Forge Music Pro.  It's a simple set up, and I have lots to learn.  I am not afraid of receiving feedback if you have any to give.  Sometimes, it's the most simple thing I may be doing wrong that changes everything!

If you have time, check out my first music book called Music Dreams: Six Original Pieces for Solo Piano through Barnes & Noble.  I welcome your feedback.  Here is a link in case you are interested. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/music-dreams-jennifer-l-jones/1143986955?ean=9798891455641
