She took a step, looked
backward, and then tried taking a deep breath. The silence was too loud, the
eyes staring at her saw right through her. She slowly drowned in the darkness
for the spotlight made no effort to chase her around. A beautiful symphony moved
her little heart and brought back a blurred flashback, a small girl in a small
town watching a bird fly and disappear in the horizon, a small girl who risked
it all, a small girl who never knew. The music seemed to never end, and she had
no clue what was going on. She was up in the clouds, she was in a black and
white picture in a broken frame, she was an old letter that was never sent. The
audience faked some smiles and clapped as the dead symphony faded. She
froze, stared at their faces, looked up and almost flied.
