J – Joy
With my eyes closed I tilt my head to better hear,
the sound of each note played to perfection.
Like a breeze I could feel the levity of each key,
as it took me up high with the gentle ascension.
The familiarity in the melody has me a step ahead,
and I can't help my lips from this ridiculous smile.
Because we have switched as I'm leant by the door,
but you're focused and I stay hidden for a little while.
You've learnt well as you caress those tensed strings,
ones that have healed and strung my heart.
And to this day I am still astonished, awed by you,
the joy you've brought me through mastering this art.
Author's Note:
Slight AU, but I'd like to think in my head that Christian would've at some point shared his love of the piano with Ana.
(*cough* I did not write a one-off about this… *cough*)
