Muse Blues by Melodie Yvonne Ramey

Please allow me a moment to bend your ear
My sick situation will soon be too clear
And all of these moments I keep to myself
I’d not wish on enemies how I have felt

Depression sets in and I don’t let it phase me
It keeps creepin’ in until I’m weak and hazy
Thought I was something but knowin’ I’m not
I wish I could change but I’m all that I got

‘Cause I am still me and you are still you
I got all this sadness so what should I do
This frowny disease won’t let me near you
but I’m going to wither without my muse blues

Knowin’ my soul is completely irrelevant
and now my heart has completely gone celibate
Flying towards hope that might soon revive me
but blues just taint greens with more blues as it binds me

And even on days when the sun shines so bright
I sit and I long for a sliver of night
For there I might find where my happiness lingers
and snatch back my smile with my discount five fingers

‘Cause I am still me and you are still you
I got all this sadness so what should I do
This frowny disease won’t let me near you
but I’m going to wither without my muse blues

I guess in the end these digits were greasy
and so are the arms that held me so briefly
now back in my mind cage still ever so lonely
I remember my place and know I’m a phony

‘Cause I am still me and you are still you
I got all this sadness so what should I do
This frowny disease won’t let me near you
but I’m going to wither without my muse blues

Melodie Yvonne

Melodie Yvonne, lead photographer and owner of Photographic Melodie, grew up in the small southern Indiana town of North Vernon. She picked up her first camera at the age of 5, and was immediately hooked. By the age of 15 she began to turn every trip, even just to the local park, into a fantasy scene of her own imagination, and started mentoring with many local professionals. Melodie received an Associates of Applied Science in Visual Technologies majoring in Photography from Ivy Tech in 2002 after studying under acclaimed professors and many other masters in the field.

Melodie’s main focus has always been music photography. Growing up listening to many amazing musicians inspired her dream to create visual images that made people feel the way they do when listening to music. Her goal was to help people SEE the music.

Melodie has done numerous jobs around the country ranging from working for bands to being the official photographer on many southern Indiana Poker Runs. Her specialties are in nature, music, and candid event photography. She published her first print work, a collection of images & poetry, in 2011, and has since published many more print works. Melodie currently acts as owner & lead photographer at Photographic Melodie, House Photographer for Purdue Theatre, and Tour Photographer for multiple Billboard Charts topping bands as well as freelance work with many other media outlets, venues, and musicians.
