Hello everyone,

Times have gotten... bumpy these past few weeks, which gave me inspiration to create this reflective piece for solo piano.  It depicts an image of a person shedding tears of emotional pain, whether because of unrequited love, loneliness, helplessness, overwhelming hardships, etc.  Musically, I was somewhat influenced by Chopin (of course), David Orr's Nocturne, other YouTube composers writing in a similar style, among others.

Some addenda: For now, I decided to post my more recent compositions mostly on here, while I'm trying to figure out how to make better visuals for my YouTube channel's original composition videos.  If any of you have suggestions for creating visuals, do tell me!  I really appreciate it.

So reflect on yourself to this music!  And like always, feedback is welcome!

Hey @Frank Normandy!

C-sharp minor is always my favourite key; any piece in that key will also be a plus 50 for me lolol! A lovely nocturne. 1:30 provides a good contrast by modulating to major key areas, and moving to high register in 1:50 sounds a nice variation to me! Also I enjoy the polyrhythms in the piece to kind of controlling the pace and emotion. The ending really gives some hope by ending on a B major chord, as well as having the piece less final which sounds good to me.

I think @chopin will enjoy this with the beautiful melody and the polyrhythms in the piece! Thx for sharing!
