The Music Matters

The song speaks of love unrequited,
Wanting something that cannot be had.
All lyric and longing and electric guitar,
A slow hand, making private things public.
It tells of frustration, and a need that doesn’t fade.
And then the piano break comes:
The most beautiful piece of music ever composed.
A few bars to give voice to the longing,
From frustration to wistfulness,
From want to need.
The guitar joins in to once again turn the tide
To hopefulness and the possibility of a love returned.
