I Would Never Let Go

The piano keys burned with the memories When I stopped playing, the music stopped The speaking stopped, everything stopped Like a still picture, my life had become A new life created, in many ways, not real Until one day, the images clearly returned The truth came rolling in day by day Like waves in a stormy sea to the shore I played notes, although long forgotten Now the beginning of a new song That was now my life, I once discarded - Renewed - Although, tears were wept on keys And words now bellowed from me I had found myself, once again - And I would never let go - Heidi Sands 6/3/18
