The first note trembling
A little nervous
Your voice a little flat
As mine ranged sharp
But soon we changed that
And the sound become unison
As we continued our song
We added words of love
And melodies of bliss
I took the notes above
While we added harmonies
And you put your fingers to strings
As I put mine to keys
But it faded into a bridge
A melancholy melody
Soon our harmonies fell apart
Our voices out of tune
And after the last discord note
We closed our lips and our eyes
Bittersweet and far from long
That was our ballad
That was our love
That was our swan song

Pretty.
Brilliant poem, especially so written in the 'first person' which I always think is good. The ending is quite beautiful, well done!
Wow. Impressive....this is excellent. I love how you presented it as a swan song, and wove it so beautifully from start to finish....almost as a wave rising and then falling....so very lovely and bittersweet....the imagery is perfect. Delightful!
