Description A piano plays through night and day
and embraces me in its warmth
she holds the notes as if her last
yet turns & pierces a smile through like glass
her songs a last sanctuary
playing her tune to script
an improvisation of the mind
of days to come
and days that end
lifes a woe and share a dream
So beautiful, so hurtful;
Screaming to be heard
modest in silence;
and every night we walk away
sleep in beds and wait for peace
yet she plays her soul
sculpting a heart into music
and we beg for quite
yet she screams to be heard
(falling) tears upon the strings
tuning her love to hearts content
so hurtful, so beautiful
engulfed by the ballad of her life
she’s detuned it in her pain
tears come together
and fall upon the keys
yet still the ballad continues
and keys harden
piano stops the play
detuned, disgusted
everything comes apart
everything goes to waste
she gets up and walks away
nothing to be heard
death in silence

wow- I'm a posni player, and play as you say in this poem. for heaven's sake, this is beautiful. her life ends when she stops on the piano, I feel like you're following her life with each line, each note from the piano. it's wonderful
