I Haven’t Played My Guitar

My guitar and me.

I haven’t played my guitar,

It lies still in a corner,

Like a child angry with its mother.

I haven’t played my guitar,

Its strings call out to me,

But I say no,

I don’t feel like me.

I haven’t played my guitar,

There is too much pain,

In those days filled with rain.

I haven’t played my guitar,

It’s still too early I say,

Let the rains go away.

I haven’t played my guitar,

It weeps out to me,

Is the guitar weeping?

Or is it me?

I haven’t played my guitar,

For a long time you see,

Maybe the music has died in me.

Music can be such an important part of us that sometimes we can’t tell where the music ends and we begin.

You’ve found a new voice. The guitar was an ex lover.;) Very nicely done.
