red piano
Red Piano
Blue Birds chirping
Like no winter
The tune seeps through the window pane
Then she hears a note, call to her
Above with its own sweet melody
Needing to find the noise
Of this heavenly place
Her ears take her
To a large heavy wooden door
It shrieks of lost love
As it opens
The smell of must and old
Though dimly lit
It feels like all eyes are
Touching her face
She walks slowly through them
To find the Song playing to her heart
Approaching a stage,
A shadow of a man appears
The one she searched for
All her life
The one that can reach her soul
Knowing her inner most desires
Anticipation wells up inside her
As his eyes veer from the red piano
Another step,
The red piano sings just for her
Another step,
He sees her clearly,
And his keys sing, just for her
On the Red Piano
