The music and I

2025.4.11 Every day, I get up early, travel to M Central. I waited for the piano to be available. As soon as I opened its lid, I wiped the keyboard clean. Well, that perfectly fitted my nickname "Captain hygiene". Currently, the first piece of music Would always be the "Fall for you", I did that to welcome the Autumn season. As well as my addiction to the piano. Then I played those songs which I started in November last year, Not in any particular order, one after another I played them all out. I managed to play eight, Two new ones since early this year. I considered that was slow, What could I do? I was getting old. Then, I played others famous movies' theme. Which I heard them in the seventy's. I played just fine. But I needed to look at the keyboard, There was time, I could not see the keys at all, As the memories flooded into my head, The music and lyrics melted my heart, Together they formed tears well in my eyes. I quickly wiped them off as they run down. It was all my fault. I was too emotional. Let my heart dictated my mind, I was too soft, unable to control, I should let the songs go, They were not written for me. They were composed before I existed. Well, did that mean all human's heart and feelings Were more or less beat the same rhymth. Would I ever be able to write my own song? One day, may be. Nowadays, with AI, anything is possible. But, I was not a fan of artificial, I adore and admire pure and genuine things Straight from the soul and out from the heart.
