I spot my reflection in the silhouette of your eyes. Like a mirror, you are me and I am you. In this lonely hour, and in this hollow room, my eardrums fill with piano notes and rhymes, as everything around me suddenly goes quite and silence blooms. I come to realize our love is nothing but meaningful lyrics hung upon abandoned piano keys, and unuttered syllables written amongst a music sheet. Yet, the symphony plays perpetually, loud and clear, demanding to be heard, to be felt. It lifts me up, swirling me in your galaxy, and every so often, I approach to tear off the mask you've been hiding behind, till there's nothing left but musical debris. I strip you of salvation. I unleash your wholeness. Rondes and blanches and noires punctuate and embellish your figure. They are a halo. They are mine.

Wrote this while listening to Erik Satie's Gnossienne no. 3. Give it a listen if you'd like.
