I shall ask before I could mask. Sounds of crying extended through the door on my left, Then I suddenly realized, That I was crying, alone, six years younger.

A gentle hand falls on the keys, It is six in the morning, Most are still asleep. A fragile string falls onto the ground, It is six in the afternoon, One shall heed to any sound. A broken man falls between the music, It is six on the clock, Unmarked, unverified, It is still too early to panic, For where he falls, where he starts the magic.
