Nocturne
Nocturne no.19 in E minor plays behind me
Rubinstein has perfect pace
a tear dances its way out of my eye
spinning thoughts in my mind
I let the tear slide slowly down my face
it feels good
only seconds have passed
yet it feels like a lifetime
my fist to my heart
I hang my head low
my chest becomes heavy
I feel every key stroke
as if many years ago my life had been composed
simple beautiful notes became a complex being
now as it plays
it feels as if my life is on display for the world
holding back a flood of emotions
I gasp for air and begin to sob
my mind reenacts the pain
a silent movie watched by my soul
the piece ends
I gather myself
feeling better than I have ages
I hold my head high leaving the pain behind

This is a very gentle write compared to the others I have read of yours. But with a touch of that "pride" ( of being a fighter )
A lovely piece to read Nikkiemoe :)

"simple beautiful notes became a complex being"

"a silent movie watched by my soul"
my fav lines, and the whole is sad, flowing and refreshing.

Music is a wonderful way to release pent up emotions. And this piece of music is fantastic.
