Creating songs and then watching them come to life feels like magic. This one feels so atmospheric like a full theatre of the mind. Love how it builds, and I can almost feel it wrapping around me.

It was so captivating to create it too, I went to sleep at 3 AM just to finish it :))) Thank you!

Yeah I get super tunnel vision with suno.

It's really something, isn't it Mila? I'm on my third listen. 🤘

This is so cool (I live with 2 teenagers, so I have to adapt my language ;))

Nicole's avatar

Haha, thank you so much, Phoeby! 🎶🎷

I know they said "cool" when we were young too. ;-) How easily we forget...

You are such a complete artist Nicole, you could also make a movie, you must be proud of yourself! "You are the place" this line is a bomb 💣

Nicole's avatar

Thank you, Nick! Love that you enjoyed it too, it rang in my head for a long time!

Your words alone are so powerful. Then hearing them with the music you created made the whole experience beautifully cinematic. Loved it 🖤

Nicole's avatar

Thank you, Jacqueline, makes me happy that you liked the experience. The lyrics seemed bland to me as a simple poem but I wanted so much for them to shine. 🌹

My words aren’t as eloquent as some, but I absolutely love your style of writing. This song is so accurate to what I feel inside sometimes. Lost my son to an O.D. soon to be 5 years in May. The music and words play to the ache that never leaves. I never knew what hell truly was til this happened. Thank you for all you write. You’re beauty and honesty shine through

Lorraine, I am so sorry this happened to you and your loved ones. It must have been a terrible string of years to cope with. They say we’re not built for a parent to lose their child first and it might be why there’s no real coping mechanisms to extinguish this pain. Glad this song brought you just a bit of companionship to your thoughts. 🫂

Rafa Joseph's avatar

I'm so sorry that happened, Lorraine. I can't imagine a loss like that ever really heals. If you ever decide to write a post about it, I'll be your first reader. 🙏

Nicole, it's such a rich and diverse piece of music. You've obviously put such care into your partnership with suno to create this amazing end product. It's a work of art which I've enjoyed very much. Thank you for the experience of reading and listening.

Nicole's avatar

Thank you so much, Kelly, for listening this poem and its song with me! 🌼

Kelly Trost's avatar

It really is beautifully sculpted sound, gorgeously formed art, Nicole!

It’s always fascinating to hear a work at the pace the creator intended. I read poetry at a very steady, regimented pace, and I know I sometimes miss the intent. Hearing it this way gave me an additional insight on the words. Thank you.

Nicole's avatar

I’ve heard a few poets doing live readings and I think it’s indeed fascinating to hear it as they thought it. My favorite is Marcel Lucont, he’s hilarious too.

Thank you, Dave! 🤗

Turned out great, Nicole. I know you worked on this a lot

Nicole's avatar

Thank you, Mike!

You're welcome

I love the amount of empty space within the arrangement of this song, and how well it accomodates the sparse lyrics. This would be an excellent song to listen to while walking the rainy streets described in your recent poem, and might even help to dry the tears. 🥲

Nicole's avatar

Thank you, Rafa! Yes, I think it would work for a rainy walk. :)

I love the minimalism of this one. It's almost chant like - almost trance like!

Nicole's avatar

Thank you, Mancee!

And no matter where I go, there I am.

With my hell.

Nicole's avatar

I know. Thank you.

Thank you, Cynthia! I’m just lingering a bit more on ideas that ring a bell. Sometimes for hours, but some ideas I’ve turned on like a rubik cube for decades (like the idea in Curriculum of Feelings). As long as you know there’s something THERE, you’ll find it one day if you keep poking.
