God needed a pianist
someone to play him a song
like he did for me once
while I thought "so how long?"
God needed a pianist
whose heart was still tore
from yesterdays aches
whose body was still sore.
God needed a pianist
whose money problems ran deep
with little time left
and a booked up week.
God needed a pianist
who loved him so,
but sometimes forgot him
for the show.
God needed a pianist
whose fingers played quickly
who kept with the rhythm
a soul that moved swiftly.
God needed a pianist
someone who touched us all
who I remember well
in our last phone call.
Dedicated to my high school classmate Derrick Finch R.I.P. 2/17/2009
