A Single Note ♪

"A Single Note ♪"
From out of the darkness
a musical note sang,
     A single solitary note,
          nothing more.
A note of melancholy
     ringing deep within me.

I stared long
into the darkness
hoping the source
Of this low lonely note
     would disappear,
But instead,
     A delicate resonance began,
Reminding me
Of a forgotten despair
That elegantly glided in on this single sound,

Low and Long
creating a harmonic tone
that filled the empty air,

This lonely hum grew
     into melodic vibrations,
          that swelled into a deluge
               of harmonic tones
                    swaying in rhythmic oscillation,
Creating the beginnings of some painful song,

A Swell of Pressure
begins pushing these Melodies further
Crashing together on the shores
Of Creation,
Pulling together emotion and color and taste and memory
     And stripping away
The monotony of the silvery whites and
Replacing it
     In Symphonic Symmetry,
A Concerto of
     splashing blues and gorgeous oranges,
a swirl of curves and lines
     of intersecting contradictions,
Tempting to seize a moment
     from the ancient pillars of imagination
To form a perfect amalgamation
     of creation and chaos,

A single note dripping in harmonies
and swirls of emotions
     to form a moment
Where time has stopped
and given memory
     to this exceptional experience.
