He stood singing in the empty room,<\/p>\n

His eyes closed as he travelled through the trills,<\/p>\n

The sound of his voice bouncing off the walls,<\/p>\n

Standing alone but filling the entire space.<\/p>\n

The stage of his mind was elaborately jewelled,<\/p>\n

Its many <\/span>colours<\/span> and lights standing out,<\/span><\/p>\n

The many stories and songs that it held,<\/p>\n

Covered in shrouds of secrecy that was his skin.<\/p>\n

He let out the power he held in short amounts,<\/p>\n

Controlled, as it had to battle its way through him,<\/p>\n

The notes fighting to leave his fingertips,<\/p>\n

The words fighting to work through his fast scribbles.<\/p>\n

Like the water flowing from a full dam,<\/p>\n

He was the spillway that brought its magic to all life,<\/p>\n

A vessel connecting the real world to the world of glories,<\/p>\n

To a world we would all live better in.<\/p>\n
