Analysis of guitar
there are moments where i wish,
that i was the frets on your guitar,
the strings that you strum to make a chord come to life,
the knobs that you loosen when you tune to drop d,
so that you could treat me as something you care about,
something you adore,
something that means everything to you,
but i know that i could never be as loved by you
as that guitar.
