Keys to my Heart

I never thought you’d mean so much,

that you could move me with one touch.

The sound of music fill my ears,

that keeps me playing many years.

The time I spend is not in vain,

I play and practice til I’m in pain.

Over time I’ve learned their ways,

the keys that let me make my plays.

I play you when I’m feeling weak,

you bring my soul back to its peak.

I play when I feel angry,

you can handle all the strength in me,

No one affects me like you do,

and yet you sit there without a clue.

You’re just a box with lots of strings,

about as plain as other things.

I could’ve quit a while ago,

could’ve stopped and just said no,

but when I hear a lovely song,

I’m thankful I can play along.

You’ve awoken my inner love,

unlocked a talent from above.

That is why I love you so,

my perfect, peaceful piano.
