Unplayable Piano

Context: The character goes to the beach one day, but gets stuck on the beach and can’t leave. They realize that since the piano is the only thing there, it must be the way out, but it won’t make sound.


Day after day

Time won’t change

The keys can’t play


The piano beckons to me

Freedom in each key

Only exit I can see


Sound won’t come

Brain goes numb

There’s no-one


Stuck in the sand

Can’t feel my hands

I am damned-


-to life on this beach

Attached like a leech

Can’t hear myself scream


Nothing in my head

This is the end

I’ll be dead


I’ll guarantee

I can’t be free

Unless you trade yourself…

For me.
