I look out my window, staring at nothingness, at blackness as the train rushes in and out of dark tunnels. The air seeps through the window panes and makes an irritating, whistling noise. I look nonchalantly at the sequential platforms we approach and i lazily stare at random people, observing them as they wait for their train. Human behavior is such an interesting thing. My train comes to stop at a station the exact same time the oncoming train on the next track does. I look at the people aboard that train. Some are sleeping, some on the phone, some just plainly sitting, patiently waiting for their turn to alight. I browse through, looking for something interesting, anything that might be out of the ordinary when i see a hand moving in a slow, almost musical kind of way. His face is obscured in my view but i could clearly see what he was holding on his lap and the reason for his hand gestures. He had in his lap a musical piece. A composition, book long. My heart flutters as i realize he was conducting music to himself. I am filled with emotion and sentiment and memories i have long put away in a treasure chest deep within me. Amazing how a simple sight such as that could bring so much sweetness. And bitterness at the same time. I want to go back to nights of rehearsals i wished would never end. How i&#8217;ve missed reading notes and getting the tempo right. I miss being able to hold up a piece and sing. I miss the harmony. I miss the songs. I miss the music.</p>http://captivatingiam.tumblr.com/post/1126012098http://captivatingiam.tumblr.com/post/1126012098Wed, 15 Sep 2010 21:15:37 +1000
