The Piano Song


I want to live on your frequency,
ride out layers of wavelengths in your sound,
jump across measures of your tone,
into the world of your C Major duet.

You can discover a song with the tips of your hands.
Create a melody with the wires of your soul.
With your heat comes the beat, the steady drum,
dancing across the vibrations in our veins.

Until the box stuck in your throat sings out,
a falsetto hum, a lost melody, a distant chorus,
playing over our lives, our actions.

Waves of your rhythms fill our bodies,
I want to dance to your bass

and get lost in your symphony.

This poem makes me laugh,
This poem makes me smile,
This poem makes my day,
This poem's worth the while.

I really only enjoy direct rhyming poems, but this.... I cannot exactly say, but it is beautiful. I enjoy this one very much. Maybe it is because of my small obsession with anything music related.

Also, I apologize for any spelling or grammatical errors in my posts, English is my second language after all. :D

I like the terminology in this poem but it's purpose seems a little distraught. What do you want me to get out of this? Think about that.

The words are good but the flow is masked behind your diction. You don't have a steady pace in this one. No distinct rhythm.
