H E L P

How to describe in words 
What i feel?
The piano it can spill
The music of my heart. 
But to share the soul in prose?
Piano keys are not enough for me
They sing of my soul 
the colour 
the feel 
Never the goddam juicy meat.

Must i cut myself up? 
Feed the earth with my many pieces. 
Finally rise 
Oh! I would rise to the stars.

‘Soul’ some say 
If I’m honest it’s probably ‘brain’.
Yet Both are but words 
And none of them are right. 

Part of the sun. 
An impossibly matched ping pong
game. 
Again and again.
The silence after lightning,
Its smell! It’s heat! 
Teenage girls first time 
cutting their own hair. 
Sisyphus letting go 
Crushed.
Free

It’s just not right
