Tempted by the soft glow
of smooth ivory keys
I slowly approach the
Piano that lies in wait for me.
As I begin, I breathe in
Slowly allowing my fingers to linger
Then firmly hold them down
Provoking their intensity
And unveiling their glorious sound
Evoking a symphony of raw emotion,
And an untold story unfolds,
Of victory, tragedy, and pure devotion-
Each note now swirling-
Surrounding me
As my trembling hands
Unravel the melody of my being.
