The Piano



I play piano.
Over the years, I have found myself more drawn to the piano than I ever would have guessed. A few years back, I hated practicing, and I hated my mother for making me take lessons as a kid. Now, I've seen the beauty.
Just look at it! With it's shiny black keys, with the whites inbetween. Isn't it glorious?
And the music. Major songs...minor songs. I myself prefer minor songs. (the songs that sound "sad") I find them more stunning, more thoughtfully written, and more beautiful.
I once read a poem by Kratos Aurion:

Piano
The sweet melody echoing in your room,
I can hear it.
Your soft singing along with the sound of the piano,
I could feel your hand brushes past the white keys with such caress.
You sweetly sang as your voice rang through my head...
Ah, what an alluring music that is...
I hope it can last forever...

I know that poem is more about a lover than about a piano, but doesn't it make you realize how the soft notes of the piano can actually bring two people closer?
