Composed in Fire.
 
   
A world adrift in stars;
A dream composed in song.
And a boy with hair that glows an ethereal white.
     
Skilful hands dance a tempo of passion and fire;    
a proud and ethereal ballad that ignites the soul.   
   faster the fingers dance;   
 their conductor lost in the music;  
 an musical inferno that grows,
as though,
 If he were to keep playing,
his song would burst from the piano and into magic;
In an intensity of whispered wonder that echo of eldritch fate.    
             
But in that world;   
   a world where song takes true form;    
where music was the worldly incarnation, of the soul itself.
In that world;
the music;
that fiery dance of the aether came to life.    
Flaring into being in a wave of fire and song    
A flaming ballad of wonder composed of dreams
bursting into golden-fire   
A fire composed of the wonder and imagination most adults lose; 
those stars of a golden memory we once knew    
that infinite wonder at the magic in our world   
 that combine with warm and homely feelings of safety in a mother's arms    
and that pure and golden fire people see in young lovers eyes;
        
      
Did I reach her...?       
The boy plays his soul in a wave;    
His love composed in light and fire.      
'And then she felt it' 
A communication that was somehow more than thought,    
beyond speech,    
beyond music or any other worldly conveyance known to man.    
But what could only be described by way of words alone;    
As a wave of pure, musical radiance;    
an anomaly that materialized within,

A sensation close to what we'd call love or hope....
    
A moment of such raw passion and wonder that to know it is to know music,
in its pure and singular essence.
 And for but a moment,    
two souls;  
Worlds apart;  
had become one.        

Silence.    
Bow poised over oldest friend;  
Time itself seemed to slow;
    
 as though reality and the cosmos were holding their breath in the calm before the storm        

Alice felt it;   
that well of will and fire inside.   

The truth  The essence,
    
The slumbering Dragon that lives in the hearts of all beings;      
the girls mind awoke;  
flooded with a wave of light and fire;  
  she could suddenly conceive all of existence;   
Contemplate all truth and wonder in its infinite complexity;  
  And on the brink of darkness;  
a beacon of hope amidst a broken world she played.  
a glowing golden thrum of a dragons soul.   
A beauty beyond beauty that reverberated throughout all planes of life:  
bow and string a dance of perfect harmony .   
The musical piece that was life itself:  
  
She blazed across that shadowed void.  
fingers playing purest wonder; she wove a world in song.
