Comment from Darlene Franklin
"her heart can't find the notes to play." This one I can easily imagine set to music. The piano, awaiting her touch, but she can't bear to play a solo. Good luck with the contest.

Thank you, Dolly! I found writing for music is different from other popular poetry forms. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Lovely comments. Much appreciated. Lynda
Comment from Lordinajamjar
Oh Lynda such a sad lament to lost love. I felt every written word.
A very nice presentation. I felt her loneliness in that sad music room that has now fallen silent.
Great job. Worthy of a six. ;)
Best

Thank you, John! Wow, love those stars!!! Awesome. Lyrical writing is different. It helps to have music in your head. I'm glad you liked this. Thanks for the sixer and welcome back Lord Rat Milk. LOL Lynda

Hahaha I managed to offload the Rat's Milk after it turned into rancid blue cheese. Just in time it turned out, because a zombie plague broke out soon after.

LMAO!!!!! Too funny!!
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written lyrical poenm about the pianist who cannot play the piano after her partner left her the day before, the pain of his betrayal to fresh to find comfort in her music like before.

Comment from RodG
This is very nice. We can easily visualize the romance that began around a piano and music. It was lovely until it ended. Your chorus shows the contrast of her status now vividly. A smooth musical cadence and natural rhymes. A splendid contest entry except for one spag:
sadly lost ITS shine.

Thanks for the fix!! Lord! Someone else caught it, too. I'm glad you liked this. You recognizing the musical cadence in this piece is a great bonus. I appreciate your time here to read this and review. Lovely comments. Thank you. Lynda

Comment from JudyE
The rhythm and rhyme here certainly makes for an impressive lyrical poem. No-one feels like making music when their love departs.
I picked up a small spag. In verse 2, 4th line, delete apostrophe from it's.
Good luck in the contest.

Thank you, Judy! Thanks for the fix. Someone else caught it as well. Sometimes you read something over and over and over until you are blind and don't catch simple stuff like this. Yes, you understood the vacuum that happens at the end of a relationship. I very much appreciate your comments. Thank you! Lynda
Comment from LisaMay
I could hear some music in my head as I was reading this... sad music cos this is tragic... it's awful when we lose the music because we don't feel loved anymore. I read some of the other entries and they left me unmoved, they didn't speak to me 'lyrically' but yours does, so I hope it is a winner for you.

Thank you, Lisa. I learned that 'lyrical' writing is different from your basic poetry form. Applying music changes everything. Your comments are lovely and greatly appreciated. Lynda
Comment from dmt1967
This is a beautiful song and I liked the way it told a story. I liked the black and white retro style of the poem and the picture and the way each verse ran into the next. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

Comment from DragonSkulls
Finally, a piece that reads like a song. There's another piece or two that comes close in this contest but for the most part, they don't. The contest creator didn't actually say it needed to be a "song" rather than just a poem but I see anything that has a repeating chorus as a song. Secondly, perfect picture you chose to go with it. I love how you worked music references throughout the piece. My mom plays piano and I'm sure she'd love this piece too. I think you have a winning work here, Lynda. I wish you the best of luck in the booth. Excellent write. Thank you. Have a great day.
