Playing Magic

That’s what it sounded like
Lifeless
Boring
No point playing
It glimmers in the sun,
Almost calling for me
I look and turn
And then I stop
Picking it up from its case
I decide
Maybe I should?
Maybe I could?
Maybe play something like magic
Subconsciously bringing it up to my chin
A simple melody forms in my head
I play it and sigh maybe
Tomorrow I will play again
Maybe I can…
…play magic
