You rationalize my darkest thoughts

The lyrics flew off the page, vibrating through his fingers as they hovered over the ivory keys.

After two days of staring at the blank page; trying to grab words as they hung elusively in the air. Hours of hard consideration deliberating what he should say. It suddenly hit him like a freight train.

Now he couldn't stop. Images and motifs masterfully woven together. His lyrical style overwhelming the narrative substance of the plot.

It was a lyrical essay.

A love letter written for one, and no one would ever guess.

Some might suspect, but they wouldn't know for sure.
