A melody

aims its rays

through a kaleidoscope

into her ear,

shoots them through

a music cannon

to travel the stars

in her eyes

to tremble

in her bones,

chill her heart

to its core.

She tilts her head back,

closes her eyes

but my eyes stay open

I can’t stop gazing

through her

to the piano

she’s playing in her head

And I want to whisper

through her tunnel of

music

so she’ll hear…

Let the shiver

fill you up,

ache for someone

you’ve never met

And when you feel

the music tingling

in your hands

throw it out

to the world,

shoot it through

your music cannon

and sing

with all of your

soul but

stay right here

by the edge of the water,

keep your eyes closed

and in your head

kiss to the beat

of the music.

So that when you open them

the light floods in

and you

see me for what I am,

framed by the music

and when you wake up

it will become

reality.

“Hey,”

I whisper

softly,

standing above that

smile that could

light up the world,

“that was me

playing the duet

with you

in your head.”
