After hours
School's out
Empty
Except for the music
That echoes in the hall
By the music room door
Beckoning
Shining
Persuading you to enter
Into a realm
Of feeling
Feeling that frightens
Enlightens
Fills your eyes with tears
Elicits strains of long-forgotten song
To sing through you once again
Along with ghosts of laughs
And words, paragraphs
Never said
Only heard
Felt
With every beat
Every rest
Every breath.
