Slave to the conductor


Tick tock, tick tock. The metronome in my heart plays again, Directing the melody embedded inside my head. My mind cannot keep up to tempo so might aswell end up dead. ... ... My restless heart slows the tempo. Relying on the conductor to steer me always. I pick up my violin and begin to play.
