I am the undertaker
the one who speaks
for kindred who need to shield.
I am the risk taker
behind the mask
holding the fort
the last resort
in this estival of unknown out comes
this is my testimonial,my task
my forte.
for BLT's word of the day challenge .......nearly a week's worth in one sudden inspiration.
undertaker-one who takes the risk and management of business,  kindred-related individuals or one's own family,  estival-relating to the summer,  testimonial-statement,   forte-one's strong point.

What a day of frustration it was
An eccentric masterpiece on stained canvas
And tho I like rains,
Seems like heaven poured me so much pains

I tried to be chill when
Regrets tried to haunt me again
1, 2 or 3 years ago
Dead end. I couldn't go

Still remember lines of disappointments
In their tired, disgusted faces
As I put my head down,
I knew I won "Ms. Miserable" crown

"It'll be fine. If not, just know it will"
An everyday lie of my mastered field
And if gets harder, more pressure pressing over me
I will repeat a cycle of negative positivity

Because if not,
What will I got?
I have to be strong
I will be strong

dots on lines
and sticks with flags
chaos to an untrained eye
but to the few who understand
they can already hear the masterpiece
a melody bold and clear
being accompanied by harmonies
the grand build to forte
before it drops to piano

All to create a story in sound
Music is my  escape

Play me.
Play me like piano keys.
Play me piano, pianissimo.
Play me forte, fortissimo.
Play me like a song, gently.
Play me with feeling.
Play.
