You must have been so lovely, Sylvie. Your song sounds purple, like the underside of rose petals. It shimmers and flickers in the water of the Seine, held together by a whispering, weaving thread, a voice in the softness. I know you, I've seen you. You're me when I play, the piano keys conductors for all of your loveliness, Pouring your essence into my heart as I begin to learn your curves and your lines. I am you, Sylvie, a woman in love, and I caress the keys and sing with your voice a song in which you are forever imprisoned, captured in a jar and preserved for eternity.

Sylvie
You must have been so lovely, Sylvie. Your song sounds purple, like the underside of rose petals. It shimmers and flickers in the water of the Seine, held together by a whispering, weaving thread, a voice in the softness. I know you, I've seen you. You're me when I play, the piano keys conductors for all of your loveliness, Pouring your essence into my heart as I begin to learn your curves and your lines. I am you, Sylvie, a woman in love, and I caress the keys and sing with your voice a song in which you are forever imprisoned, captured in a jar and preserved for eternity.
