The Cello

(Start music from the beginning)

Elegant and forlorn,

the cello sings its sorrowful tune

With each bow stroke,

it tells a story of pain and doom

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

Its deep, sonorous voice

resonates through the halls,

aching with melancholy

and yearning for what is gone

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

It whispers of heartbreak

and the weight of the world,

of love that was lost

a tragedy unfurled

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

Oh, how it weeps and wails,

begging to be heard,

for in its heartrending song

lies the essence of its word

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

The deep voice tugs at my soul,

so haunting and real,

and tears fall with each note

this operatic ode yearns to feel

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

In its chords, I see a reflection,

of all the things we try to hide

but with a simple touch, they reveal

echoes of what we keep inside

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

The cello weeps, its soul laid bare

a dark tenor, telling a life of strife,

of pain and pining

its lament is the soundtrack of my life

🎼 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 𝄆

Oh, how it longs to be heard,

but its cries often go ignored

for the cello's melancholic tone,

is often played and mourned alone

I just want to give a quick shout out to Lamar Wiggins for this idea to include music. I'm sure other creators also knew about this, but it was he who inspired me, lol. Here's his piece for anyone who is interested.
