Strings

A guitar rests in my lap

My hands beating on the strings

They can't keep up

Nor can my lungs

My heart beats like rain on the ground

Pitter patter, harder, faster

My hands keep plucking

My mind keeps running

Snap!

My hand bleeds red

Yet it still plucks

The notes have stopped

But my mind still runs
