preya,
i think your poem has great potential. The first stanza grabs the
reader's attention. The rest of the stanzas have a sad, melancholic
note.
But i'm not too sure about the theme, is it about an old pianist
parting with his/her piano, which had been with him/her since a
long time ago?
thanks a lot for your compliment. i was using an old piano to
symbolise childhood dreams; something that's been with the speaker
for a long time, half-forgotten. the moving house symbolises moving
on, growing up. so yeah, i was kinda aiming for that melancholic,
wistful note. nice to know i hit it.
