A
I, sorry A
Was my first
AAA, AAA
Was all I could rehearse
Till I met B
Bloody B was enough for me
A slowly becoming history
B fore
The B-brilliance of..
Stuttering as C walked in
Even B just had to B-leave
That C was B E A Utifully
Made, curved just the right way
And as I approached
Madmoiselle C
D-are I say I was stunned
D in all her bulk B-umped
Into I, sorry me
She smiled awkwardly
Forming an opposite C
I, meeting her halfway; D
Was the one I-thought
I'd never C
Her humour growing on M-E
Till M broke up with E
Igniting long lost
Childhood fanta Sees
For M never parted with E
So I never had the chance to C
Whether I, sorry me
Could stand next to HER
Before the H
A nd A fter the R
Or would I Fail
Just like F always said
She was into M-E, sorry I
While I
Was into G
So many F-ish in the pond
You S-E-E
A B C D E F G
I strum

And the silence
Is undone
Alone, a single string is unsung
Together, melody is unbound
Freely running across the Soul-fa
Notations of the Sun
Music; the light in the dark
I strum

And the lights go out
The dark comprehended it not
But it shines still
Even where some think it would not
Creaky bones vibrating prose
Quite verbose on the dance floor
I strum

Just like I did before
And the world seems to stop
Earphones harbouring the cosmos
Like my emotions locked in a single drop
Of honey coated chords
In poetic sweetness, I'm lost
I pause, and strum

My insecurities to dust
Sprinkled before forever
Dead letters
Rise to hoist the sails
Of the flying Dutch..
I sail this alphabet to lunch
So I'm full enough
To strum it like I should
From the A to the D O double G
Like a certain rapper would
Tap dancing on the strings
Made from the strands
Of fate; the hair of Atropos
Strings I hope to break
Set my own rhythm
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
