“melodic phrasing often only lasts
the duration of a breath”
unknown quote in reference to Mozart
in the space between the notes you told me of a world and places I’d never been and sights I’d never seen did reality make them any less in the space between our breaths you dreamed of landscapes I’d never walked on and people I’d never met pictures described in details always delighting, enlightening, entertaining if I asked you now what was real would you describe to me a holographic world filled with illusions performed for somehow now it all seems dreamy and I’ve entered into my own dreamcast something imagined, impressioned, sensationed from the land of once upon less stress in the space between the notes in the space between our breaths there exists the gentle pause where hearts are laid to rest
