The Black and White Keys MAG
I sit here as the cool wave of calmness
Takes over my spirit
The white and black keys
Adjoined to each other
Space out like a perfect rhythm
The first few notes trickle down the wall
Hitting the ground, these despairing raindrops
With a harder and louder progression
Riding up the crescendo until it becomes a storm
A melancholic tempest in E minor
Thunderbolts hit here and there
Doom is here, playing its own solo
A finale’s lightning bolt hits as a pause follows
The ringing of silence is unavoidable
The war is over as sadness descends
Rain falls softer in a stagnant tempo
Softer and softer
Until it is nothing
But an eerie trickle of the black and white keys
Then came the last triumphant thunderbolt
Anticipated yet feared
And as soon as it began
The song is over
