Requiem
March 14, 2016
My finger presses down on a old piano key
phantom notes of a smiling piano teacher
float through the room
I glance at the guitar sitting in the corner
silent cords of a broken promise
from an older sibling
echo from the amp
Lyrics from different songs
planned for a school preformance
are scattered aross the goung
I take a deep breath
hoping there is some talent
somewhere
in my heart
