The Strum

by anatomyofwords   Jun 9, 2014


The strings are painful to my fingers
trying to press hard and never let go
no melody seems to linger
cause there's only one song that I know

a song that my heart was screaming
ever since you shut that door
the harmony makes me feel like dying
crying and bleeding on the floor

i take one strum and then it sounds
so monotonous, so simple, so plain
the loneliness of this tune nobody could ever expound
that my heart begins to crush and I cannot constrain

the strings are painful to my fingers
trying to press hard and never let go
no other melody seems to linger
cause there's only one song that I know

..just the song of the broken..
