As I place my fingers on the keys,
I tried to keep my mind at ease.
With trembling hands I tried to play,
The music you and I used to share.
I close my eyes as I hear myself,
Playing the sweet tune that fills the air.
Though lachrymose as it seems to be,
I kept playing on, lost in reality.
For every note and every beat,
Makes me only reminisce.
Of a once great love story doomed to an early end,
A fairytale that never really had a happy ending.
Until the day that you left me,
I swore to myself never to play the piano again.
But here I am, touching the black and white keys,
Because from now and then on, it will only be the piano and me,
With or without you I’ll keep on playing,
With or without you the world will keep on turning.
Whatever happened in the past remains unspoken,
And forever will it be hidden in the notes of our music sheet.
..this was actually the poem i made during our English time wherein the topic is "the thing that inspires you the most." Out of all the poems i made, this is my favorite. Somebody asked me, "why the piano?"
And i just answered, "'coz i use to play it for someone who really inspires me...before."
"Before?"
"yeah,that someone left me just as i was about to finish playing our favorite song."
"So you never touched the piano again?"
"I just played it last week."
my BIG realization:
just because you lost your inspiration, doesn't mean you have to stop doing something you enjoy the most. Move on, you don't need a someone to make your life worth living especially if that someone will only be there for a short period of time. You can always look at yourself as an inspiration. And really, there is a BIG difference between playing the piano for an inspiration and playing the piano as an inspiration.
(hope you like the poem.^_^)

The poem was lovely ~
Because from now and then on, it will only be the piano and me,
That was my favorite line. ^^ I really loved it~~
Pianos are so melodious.
Glad, then gloomy.
Like when you've thought it's fabulous.
It just ends up in misery.
That's how love is.
And maybe will be.
With the strike of the keys.
Is it to the end or 'til eternity?
