Sounds Cape


Sibelius
Are you with me
does the word take you anywhere at all

Shadows made of life
silhouettes in a white or a greyer snow
are you with me
does the brightness take you anywhere at all

Minimalist backdrops
to the foreground of all our dreams
Only the silence pulls apart the tension
Are you with me
does the theatrical take you anywhere at all

Blood drops on the canvas
the initiation, with a knife of gold
Stalactites, mites in close formation
Are you with me
or does the rite of passage leave you cold
