Keys

It's become a routine
Letting guys use me
I settle for below my league
Or so my friends tell me
From mental disabilities
To family issues
They still get me on my knees
I don't want to be the lock
I want to be the keys
Choosing which door I fit
Not letting them unlock me

Onstage

Piano trilling
Drums thrilling
Bass pumps straight through your heart
Guitar screams,
Keys dream,
Vocals piercing like a dart—
Mist shifts
Mood lifts
Hot chills electric down your spine
Crowd yells
Colors swell
Lift your hands, lose your sense of time...

Clicking Heartbeat

the clicking of the keys
spells out
the beat of the heart

sorry for the earlier typos y'all

self-esteem

as the light keys
of the piano
drift smoothly
and swiftly
across my fingers
i played
as the melody sings
the piano keys
seemed heavier by the second
as i played softer and softer
the voice became louder and louder
the melody disrupted

If i had 88 keys in my life...

If I had 88 keys in my life
I could show you my world
Full of rain and sunshine

Let you feel my feelings
Flow with you through the river
And be together like black and white keys

But i can´t

My 55 keys wasnt enogh
To reach my song
Through your ear
To your heart

But I still love
To play with my keys.

keymaker

last night
i had a dream
so real-
i wish it was.

theres a burrow in there.
a nook.
a tunnel.
that wakes at its mention.
like a marionette
for its final dance.

i try to keep all the ****
i dont have figured out
in there.

theres a lock on it
but i kept the key too.
its somewhere on my chain
with the others.

the key might be
two gin cocktailes
and not eating for awhile.

i found a place that i left behind.
it still holds the things i look for.

Keys to these doors

Seeking meaningful friendships
Was all I was looking for
Meeting new people
Not expecting anything more

I am in a good place
feeling content on my own
putting myself first
I feel so much I’ve grown

Yet unexpectedly
you caught my eye
I tried looking the other way
that was a mission to try

So many thoughts
as my mind wanders on
people come and go
before you know it they’re gone

you ventured the world
trying to find your place
building homes in others hearts
going at your own pace

you’re in a great place you say
you feel right at home
but are these feelings temporary I ask myself from you being alone?

“It could be a phase” Are my thoughts
given the patterns that I see
perhaps another venture
testing the waters with me

I have no void to fill
needing no one by my side
and im a pretty open book
not very much to hide

If you still decide
That you want to come my way
Be honest and kind is all I ask
Whether or not you stay

Unbearable pain
Something I’ve experienced before
Time and earning trust
Are the keys to these doors
