Description This is for the Reader:

With the soft touch of his fingers
The piano begins to play, a heart untouched for so long
Bares its secret melody...


-

When I first started out I couldn't avoid just bein' cold
My life revolved the things that I was always told—
I never knew the warmth of standing up to take a bow
It was not a joy that I would ever-ever be allowed
Through all the days I feared that everything would disappear
You held me up and held me close like I was something dear
I never knew I had a part of me that you would like
I guess that's what you feel when you can't even see the light…

-

So this is the only way, that I can—
Properly express my thanks
For everything you've done for me
This my way of thanks
My way of thanks
My way of thanks

-

I can't remember how many times I said I'd quit the game
It felt like I was hitting blocks and always feeling lame
But then you taught me that no matter what, you were here
You read the worst of my works and put away my fear
And now I'm sitting here, ab-so-lute-ly clear
I know exactly what I should say to you my dear…

-

That this is the only way, that I can—
Properly express my thanks
For everything you've done for me,
This my way of thanks
My way of thanks
My way of thanks

-

To every reader out there, thank you for your support!
You're the one that makes the artist

Thank you for the thanks, and you're welcome.
I love how you change your writing style al the time, yet there is still a definite -Chen Trademark- there, that I can't exactly describe yet. If I find the right words I'll tell you.

I truly enjoyed reading this. The switch between rap to singing was done perfectly. Your choice of words is always stunning and I could easily picture this as a song/rap ^^ I always love reading your stuff, keep up the aweshome work! x3

sandramonster [2012-10-12 15:26:54 +0000 UTC]

I like these rap/song poems you write. Somehow it always reminds me of Linkin Park, they often do rap in the verses (?) and sing the chorus... But it can be (and probably is) that they're my favourite band, so ... ^.^
Anyways, I liked it very much! :3

Haha, I loved Linkin park in the past. More into K-pop now, but thank you for enjoying my work ^^

Amazing work! It was fun switching from rap to normal to singing, and the tone of the piece was portrayed rather well. I do dislike artists who think they're perfect and never pay attention to their audience, the reason they're so famous. I wish something could be done so you could retrieve those messages. Anyway, keep up the great work!
