2024 Ghost Music

Borrowed Light, Perez

 

Ghost Music

 

I hope you are a piece of consciousness

that my music can still reach,

still lure you with the language 

 

we shared on those summer evenings

when my music sent my mind

floating into yours

 

while you sat, eyes closed, ears alert

at the sonic door I entered

bearing messages without words.

 

I hope the sound charms you still

and we are sharing something at the core,

deep in the mystery of where you’ve gone.
