I touch my lips down with a kiss
I never knew how far I would miss
All it sounds like is broken piano keys.
I loved it when he called me miss
He put my heart into a state of bliss
But all it sounds like is broken piano keys.
His hand went with a sign of dismiss,
And he threw my heart into the abyss
And all it sounds like is broken piano keys.
If the piano sounded like heaven,
And happiness was in sight
Maybe this story
Wouldn't have sounded like broken piano keys...

Hey y'all!
This is my very first attempt at writing a villanelle, so please excuse any errors!
I've been reading several in my AP Literature class, so I thought I would give it a shot!
For those of you who don't know, a villanelle is a poem with three tercets, and one quad tercet. Meaning three stanzas with three lines, and one with four lines. They usually have a basic rhyme pattern. They have 19 lines, and 19 lines only!
I really enjoyed writing this, and I hope you enjoyed it!!
