Some might call it a renaissance, where he was in his life's history.

He spent his whole existence in the Dark Ages,
Abiding to his own nonsensical rules,
In hopes that he would appear strong,
And not give into any foolery or senselessness.

But then he met her,
And polyphony filled his world and made it brighter.
Harmonies enriched his soul,
And made it lighter.

The world was no longer black and white,
But they were vivid and colourful and animated.
Life thrived everywhere within his once-blackened heart.

All because of her.

She was his renaissance.
His rebirth.
His awakening.
