Dead Note
I designed notes to craft the beauty of one’s emotions
My notes were left on a deaf ear
Surely my arrival was not welcomed
For the silence irritated my generosity
I was welcomed with an open microphone
And accompanied, by the sound of my foot steps
As I rose to the stage
I felt like I was stared by a flock of owls
Noting my every move
I barely introduced myself
I felt like a wave of an uncalculated frequency was affecting my brain
I ended up repeating things like an amnesia patient
By a slip of a tongue I left a dead note
And yet still today wonder what I said
