For if music is freedom....this stage is freedom-less
For if music is rational....this music is joyless"

I turned the corner where we first met and was reminded of a once forgotten truth...

“One thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.”
― Bob Marley

I shut my eyes and let the soulful melodies embrace me, soaking deeper than our visceral linings.

"You should go down to the music hall little lady, it's a great night for music."

"I would...but I think--"

“Don’t think. It complicates things. Just feel, and if it feels like home then follow its path.”

― Robert M. Drake

Below the lights...I saw harmony in the flesh.

"A beautiful melody, telling me terrible things"
―Tom Waits

There was a gentle innocence, a beautiful romance, a soft aggression in how he played.

lust, rage, love
sadness, joy, pain
love, rage, lust...

I move in closer before being frozen by his gaze...

“His eyes are so intense I want to look away . . . or never look away, I can’t decide.”
― Kasie West

In one look, I saw his eyes reflecting a girl I barely recognize.
.
.
.
...it was him, my him.
