Favorite Quote:
I reject your reality, and substitute my own. (Adam Savage)

View profile

The notes are heavy as lead,
dragging down my soul
with their somber melody.
The volume rises.
My heart sinks.
As it decrescendos and flows into
the bridge, my thoughts
wander to a dead meadow.
the air is still, fill
with the scent of regret,
waiting to die alone.

This one goes out to Savahna, I apologize in advance for probably spellin your name wrong. I wrote this while you were playing in the talent show on your piano, back in Duke 2010
