I Know This Feeling
I don’t know you,
But I know this feeling,
The urge to express
That floods my senses
With warm, foamy waves
Playing heartstrings
In a rush to the piano
For hours and days
Whatever it takes
To exceed the pleasure
To abandon myself
To feel helpless
It is rare and precious
It changes the value
Of each comparison
Filling the void
With tone and melody
And generosity.
I don’t know you,
But I would like to.
