Maybe if I
look deeper
listen longer
press harder
the piano
will erase my memories.

This is really great! Your poems are so deep and emotional, I really love these! This is lovely. Thank you for sharing your true poetic ability.
Upon reading this again, I can't seem to find it humorous, or even 'dark', for that matter. Your poem suddenly seems to have become this artistic expression of pain. It is amazing how something so short has invoked such a wide range of emotions, amazing!

Beautiful! Suddenly, within a few lines, there's a story. And it's heartbreaking in its simplicity. Very well done! I love it! :)
I play the piano a lot, and somebody I know was walking by as I played today, so I did my best to immerse myself in my playing and not think about them.
It's difficult.
