Piano Broke.




                     In one beat,
                                                                    I can still hear the music she played, the emotional beats that set my soul at ease while hers blazed.

                                                                    We wrote these words together, the music sheet was the only document we used to solidify our perfect
                     song, it was as                                union, like a marriage certificate of sorts. Days turned to weeks, weeks to months and the piano could

                     though we                                      Then the tunes broke, each note felt like a drag. No rhythm, we were no longer in sync. She was burnt

                                                                    broken, nothing to hold on to. Divorced. We no longer make sense because we were held together by
                                                                    the piano.
