so I can show Lev a song
I yearn to strum with him
so I can be as happy as he was
with uke in hand
I learn to play the ukelele
so I can be closer to him
I wear the jacket we both wore
strum the uke he shared
Yet I will never share a song with him
He will never see me play
I play alone
I hug a ukulele
the sound is full, yet empty
