Sigh
 
 
Outside, the rain pours down
hard, wild, thunderous
like her
He turns from the window
sees her, hard at work
inspiration being captured
 

She plays, and hums
He sighs
returns to the window
loses himself in the rain
floating on static
Living for thunder
 

Rain slows and quiets
Her piece is nearly done
His opinion?
Listen close
after all
it's for him
