Love Music

love is a sour note
or a stupid key
that'll only squeak the throat
or dry the chord
and sooner or later 
the voice cant afford
but the voice is so stubborn
as a black goat

love is a tasking soprano
or a druming acapela
from the pounding hearts
a-beat dissapointment
where the major fall
or shred apart
and the minor rise
only to fall again

you can play it all day long
and seem like a master of the instrument
but at the middle of a song 
it can yield discourse
and smile only
at your expertee predicament
it can never leave
the tune to your control
that's what is love
and what is ts goal
