The Piano
Tone
notes slide off the page as the unending sweet sound of the keys sing a melody that my heart reaches out to
Dynamics
swelling of sound blasting in my eardrums like Beethoven’s 5th only to feel the exhausting release of the decrescendo
Staccato
incessant tiptoeing of keys as they sneak into my heart and never let go
Rest
feel the air leave my lungs as the music reverberates a harmony that can be heard in my soul
Fermata
anticipation grows as my heart precariously hangs off the edge of a cliff only to be pulled back in
Adagio
fingers slowly gliding across the keys of my heart like a dancer’s waltz
D.C. al fine
the deceptive end like a kiss goodbye only to rebound back to the where you began
Fine
a heartbreaking finale as my hands reluctantly leave the keys and I take my final bow
Piano
the love that I cannot live without
