Like shadows we dance

in and out of corners

and the places where no one has been

or ever will be

listening to silver sound;

notes that fall like raindrops from an empty sky

as beautiful as liquid diamonds

shimmering in the air

and on the ground

where they become oceans

deep blue, and full of haunting melody

wrapping around us, pushing us underneath the surface

until we too become part of the oceans

until we too drown in songs

becoming endless and ending all at once
