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.
