I'm new at playing piano and I can't explain how I feel when I play, I love playing. It is the most amazing thing I really want to write songs and I have plenty of inspiration but I write it and I really like and I feel so much better I feel pretty satisfied and like I've got a huge weight off my chest but the next day I read it and it's not right. Something's allways wrong and doesn't exactly say how I feel or felt any advice?

Hi, lovelyflowerful!

I'm confused here. Are you asking about songs or just instrumental pieces of music, please?

Thanks!

Yes that happens to me, too.
Impromptu stuff seems real nice right after doing it, but when you look at it the next day it just doesn't seem quite right.

Have you attached some melody to the words? Sometimes music can express a lot of things that words can't. You might be surprised that some of the best songs out there won't really make sense without the music.

Do you enjoy classical music?
Try listening to Nightwish, Within Temptation, and other gothic music, the songs are really deep and full of emotion. It might help you.
