Black and White
February 28, 2016
Sometimes your feelings aren't
black and white.
Sometimes expressing those feelings
cannot be fulfilled through words.
That's when you let the
black and white
ivory keys do the talking.
You tell them what to say.
Sometimes you might not know what
you are trying to portray.
That is when you let the music move you.
When you feel it in your bones,
that's when you will be heard.
It may not be what people want to hear,
but at least they are listening.

I just started learning how to play the piano, and I was inspired to write this poem when I was lost for words and realized that music is an amazing subsitution for words.
