Blank Sheet

Blank Sheet

 
Where love
once acquainted
weakened knees and butterflies
 
now lives the wrath
of my broken heart
 
a solo performance on my piano 
 
a solo performance of total silence
 
keys from a past life
that were once
finely tuned to perfection
 
now playing a blank sheet of music
 
I am silent
 
I am blind
 
I am lost.

Such a beautiful thing to say, thank you dearest Rory. I was always taught by other poets to write from my heart, and you have just reminded me that I do. 🌹

This really is quite powerful in a beautifully romantic way. I love the reference to music which ( for me anyway) can induce such powerful emotions ...just as love itself does. Really quite a stunning write of heartbreak Shirley X
