This is something I wrote when listening to ‘Moonlight’ by Brian Crain. It is an excellent composition. I wish I could play piano like that.
O’ sun of a midnight!
Wake me from my blind
Reverie of the silence;
Play me a song that saves
My heart from its death;
O’ sun of a midnight,
Drown me in every swell
Of every note that you play,
Play for me till it fills
Each silent crevice of my soul!
Play till it gluts the stillness
Of the wasteland that broods
In each of my veins!
Play till I choke,
Play more till I drown,
In the song of the dawn
Of a truth that returns me
To a life I’d forgotten!
O’ sun of a midnight,
Prick me so an ocean
Of feeling swells high,
After a lifetime of death,
And an eternity of calm;
A calm that kills,
A calm that deafens!
Play for me till I die again;
In the arms of a melody
That fondles my heart
And makes it beat
Through immortal death!
To love and eternity!
