What shows
how little
we know?
What can be is
oft far less than
what we expect.
What is now
has never been
what it was.

Aching melodies
and movements
scratched into the time
left behind. Substantial still.
Let your ears go there.
Your soul will listen
as much as it hears
what it needs to.
Shadows and silence
now staves onto which
we compose symphonies
for those who may never
know the music,
and a sonata for the ones
we think might.
