I touched your neck,
it made me smile.
Longed for you last night,
didn’t want to wake people next door.
Pile of autumn leaves,
your ambery gold subdued,
and that intimate something,
I won’t tell if you don’t.
Home for the memories,
silent till them turn classic.
Craftmanship maybe part of it,
up-tight with strings and ivory.
Hold you like a sacred rite,
are you comfortable in my thighs?
Adjusting to you this and that,
until you drape just right.
Cause when I play you,
it’s you who reach out to me.
Vibrate through and through,
doing something I don’t know.
The low makes me tremble,
the high makes me soar.
The more it flows through you,
it’s not me who play the notes.
At first glance,
you are but an instrument on a stand.
But when you are close at hand,
I doubt I deserve you just yet.
But I treat you right, don’t I?
Do you blush under my loving eyes?
What is in a cello like you,
but a devoted soul’s delight.
