Don't Let the Music Stop

Folder: 
poems

You play me like a piano

Soft and gently flowing

A piece so captivating

I don't want you to stop



The tune carries on

And echoes through me

Eternally perfect harmony

Together in time



The effortless magnificance

Of our sheer beauty

Is plain to all listening

Even to the untrained ear



Your fingers are aching

Begging for a rest

But we need to play on

Don't let the music stop



You play on just for me

Battle against the pain

Fingers are shaking

Soon to give up
