Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

Playing

I'm not happy anymore

There's no joy left.

I'm just playing the notes

There's no feeling left.

I only read the music

I don't really learn anymore.

Yet you keep pushing me to play

As if I could fake emotion

And lie to the whole world

Saying I still love this instrument

When I wish it would end.

They are just black and white keys,

I don't understand

Why you want me to keep pushing them

When you see me struggling to like it.
