I hear the sound

I hear the sound

A Poem by Black Swan Poetry

I hear the sound

As you slowly

Push down the keys

 

Ringing in my ears

The music that comes

From your misery

 

I can feel the pain

In the notes

That you play so hauntingly

 

To be heard

Your songs plead

Life has a way

Of writing these

 

They reach out

And touch me

As if I am

In this life

That I do not lead

 

To connect to us all

They strangely somehow succeed

We are left feeling every drop

That your fingers bleed

i really like how it ends, especially the line "that your fingers bleed." i feel like the ending really sums of the visuals and gives the piece a more dramatic tone in those last few words.

The eee of the last word per stanza leads (forgive the eee word) us along.

This is a great poem. I was reminded of hearing Chopin...feeling Chopin. Being drawn in to understand what the artist was trying to say.

Good write.
