In silence, I now sit inside your room as doleful fingers strike piano keys, and beauty soars like roses, red, in bloom. The weight of life, your heart and mind, it flees. A sad, foreboding melody does loom. I muse as I remember times like these - just thirty-seven years on earth, not long. Tonight, I hear your sad piano song.
