"Old Guitar Thing"

"Old Guitar Thing"

A Poem by Rache David
"

I played it, yet it didn't reach you.

"

Twisting peg for tuning


Facile strum of the string


Sharp, major to minor, A to G


Sound of notes comes to flee


Yet anguish will remain


Even our theme song starts to end


For irrevocable fate grasps no change


And like the notes, you’re out of range


On this rocking chair, unable pull love’s string


So, I’m alone with my old guitar thing.

I envy those who are really good in playing guitar. Since I am a composer, I needed an instrument so that I can give life to my compositions. But the problem is, I am a small person, so my fingers are not long enough that I find it hard to press the strings of the guitar. lol. My solution? I bought an electronic keyboard and until now, I can use it in my compositions.

Lol. Sorry if I made a story-telling here in my review.

Back to your poem, I like the flow. Well-written!
