Emotions of A Piano

The master of emotion,

The king of the dance,

Hurried fingers add

A note of daring chance.

 

Molten happiness

Floats in the air

Like a passing good dream;

With never a care.

 

Now poignant,

Now sad,

How melencholy

How deep and drab.

 

Silver metal gleams

In the eye of the mind,

Lost an ancient battles

On which the sun shined.

 

Melodies curl around inside,

Twining round my arms-

This music can protect me

From any kind of harm.

 

Sharp, shrieking voices

Let out a scream

As they find out the world

Is not what it seems.

 

A starry night captures

A beautiful song

For a love through the ages,

The ages so long.

 

The smooth rythms

Of the everlasting trees

Whisper quietly

Throughout the leaves.

 

Musty notes

In a darkened room,

And sunshine floods

Into the gloom.

 

Music tells the truth

And the truth never lies,

But pianos are tricky

And their feelings they hide.

 

Anger forces the

Furious beats

Into the world

And off silent sheets.

 

Midnight and brightness

Float in the stars,

Connecting all people,

So close and so far.

 

Pure and simple,

Liquid notes

Fall in arpeggio scales

Through dancing dust motes.

 

A single tears falls,

Making no sound

As keys pull memories

Up from the ground.

 

Everything's so simple

When played in black and white;

The piano controls

My darkness and light.
