Resonance
August 20, 2011
Plink.
I hit the key.
The beginning.
Just what I need.
I hit a few more keys
As my melody begins
The clock ticking
My heart beating
I feel this.
I toy with a couple chords
Like a scientist,
Playing with his chemicals
Searching, searching for that perfect reaction
I play faster and faster
My hands gliding,
This richness infiltrating me
My heart swells
An explosion of color bursts.
My hands slow down
A gradual ending
The sound fades away.
I stop
Wipe the tears from my eyes
And breathe.

This is incredible. Breathtaking. As a fellow musician, I know the feeling. I love the last stanza... amazing (:
