Floating on Passion Road


Been a bit restless tonight, so went snooping in my computer and stumbled unto the 'music'files I used for my artproject last summer. Never got around to placing them on the net. Won't show you the samples of the interviews we took, but just the few files my friends and I taped. They are samples of my favorit poems and the unforgetable song "Ne me quitte pas". 

This is in words where I was going for with this project...

"Close your eyes, breath in deeply, 
hear how the wind softly wispers in the trees 
and feel how your toes are just touching 
the water underneath your feet. 
You're at a lake, so silent and still, 
you can see your whole world reflected upside down. 
It's quiet but then you hear a sweet voice just out of reach. 
It's like listening to people talking while you are floating in water, 
your ears just beneath the surface. 
The sound grows, you can almost hear...
It fades away and comes nearer to you still. 
Words are dancing over the water in waves of soft murmers 
caressing and teasing you. 
Telling you about loves lost, unending sadness, 
playful joy, childlike wonder and radiant happiness.
Your eyes are still closed, 
a soft radiance is starting to come through, 
it's warm and pleasant and fills your heart with joy. 
The light begins to dance and play with the voices, 
playing hide and seek...
slowly the light increases and so do the murmers. 
You feel a joy building up inside you, ready to explode...
you're dancing, dancing with the light, floating on the water, 
touched by the voices that surround you... 
Bliss.... 
and then it's gone... 



The silence drums in your ears, 
it's your turn to break the silence,
tell the world your hidden dreams,
 your most precious thoughts.


 
The next day when you walk along the lake, 
you'll hear your heart beating,
drumming your dreams, your joys, 
whispering your broken heart. 
But you're not alone, 
more souls join in.
 What was once painfull joy
 blends into a song....
a celibration of life, 
a celibration of you....
breathhhhhe."
