When the strings and piano flood your ears

Enveloping your whole being

And throwing it into a world of peace

How classic this feeling is

The feeling of wanting to try and learn the piece of music

The wanting of a skill you feel is correct

Correctly placed in your mind yet not held

How classic can a feeling be

When you're listening to things other than strings

Do you feel like you want to learn a skill

That the other may be speaking of

How classic should you be

When you sit in front of a computer

A link that you had already saved

You know the song

And you realize its length

How classic would it be if you could just learn it easily

The feeling of a sad piano solo

How ironic it is to listen to a saddened song

In your timeline when you know there is nothing dramatic

Nothing dramatic that should be keeping you down

How classic it would be

If you could just walk away from the saddened songs

And just listen to something else

A song that is within your grasp to learn

How classic you may think

When you write a poem

With piano and strings music flooding through your head

It won't envelop you anymore

It will only drown the feelings you thought you had

And only the feelings you thought were gone

Will show in its place

Bearing an ugly face

And now

Your classic music isn't yours anymore

How classic it is that music can be changed so easily

To an angry note and rhythm

It haunts me

And it will no matter what classic thing you listen to
