[choices]:another day

We walk around each day
encountering others along the way.

I'll smile, and you'll say nothing, not even a word
But I really can't help it if I look like a nerd

Sure, at first questions may seem random,
but they truly aren't bad when executed in tandem.

So say something like, "Do you like Ramen?"
and I should respond with "HEY we have something in common!

So next time you see me don't lose sites
Instead ask me "Do you like to fly kites"?"

The Player

Soft, melodious notes played with sweet delicacy….the music of the piano lives on. He plays non-stop through the twilight.
A haunting chill envelops the dimly lit room of which the player is placed. Candles burn for another day while the notes sing of the past.
His fingers are bruised up from excessive playing and his grip of the keys are weak because they are soaked with tears.
The music stops.
He thinks of – her.
A slight smile of the sublime tears across his face.
The music begins to play and once again the smile is gone.
