On days like today he likes to sit in his room,

music playing quietly as he lies in his bed.

He closes his eyes and listens as each notes zooms

like a frantic wave from the piano to his head.

The soft, sweet melody is his friend,

the harmony speaks to him like a loving mother.

He sighs as the song comes to an end,

the music fades as he favors the silence that's unlike any other.
