Only one to shed fear,
Only one to grasp hope,
A ripple for a smile,
A minute to cope,
Seconds to forget,
Hours to remember,
To bury the deepest of depression,
To reveal ones true expression,
I drift through an endless space, reacquainting myself again
With the parallel black lines
Stacked on top of each other with infallible precision
In a backdrop of a cream filling, rich as buttercream topping on a cake
Working diligently...
Alone...
(humming loudly to myself)
POUNDING LOUDLY AT THE PIANO!
I leave my solitude for a moment to get some water.
(All the while, symphonies compose themselves in my head,
I am imperturbable and versatile
I wonder about dramatic compositions on the succinct sheet of life I hear nothing surround me except my malleable mind urging me to play the keys of time correctly
