During the day, all are welcome

To try and play the Communal Piano

She sings their songs

From grunge to classical

She plays her roles well

However, at night a different song is sung

A song she plays herself

A song that dances in the darkness of the now empty hall

Minor chords echoing around the spacious rooms

A song about how her day had been

A song for no one but her

After all, no one wants to hear this song

Minor chords don’t encourage anyone

So she must wait until she’s by herself to sing

A song to prepare

For the coming day
