the strings on the piano are wound very tight
they last into the night sounding
virtues and other states capturing
the moment as objects that linger for
things left unsaid
the fortune of calculating the lossy glow
of morning before going to bed
the adventures that lead to other places
the people you saw along the way
and how they gave you inspiration
encouraged your amusements and gave
you tickets to the concert of a lifetime
where you have lived ever since
remembering things as they were
they last into the night sounding
virtues and other states capturing
the moment as objects that linger for
things left unsaid
the fortune of calculating the lossy glow
of morning before going to bed
the adventures that lead to other places
the people you saw along the way
and how they gave you inspiration
encouraged your amusements and gave
you tickets to the concert of a lifetime
where you have lived ever since
remembering things as they were
