A recorded reading of “Ribbons of Us”. If the player does not load, use the original audio source.
We meet in careful fractures, ribbons of skin, of spirit, spooling toward each other through the measured ache of want. Your hands cross the unclaimed gaps, tracing what is mine yet half-forgotten, while my voice trembles through the spaces your heart dares to hold. Love is not seamless — it slices, smooth and slow, etching lines of belonging where we might vanish if we let it. For a breath, I recoil, fear a blade behind your warmth, but still, I breathe inside your unfinished shape, learning the contours of my own echo, each fragment a promise that I can be whole beside you, not devoured, but devoutly known. Between mirrored wounds and gentle sutures, we stand: two broken infinities who choose, again and again, to bind.
Instructional lyrics
[Intro: Guitar delay repeats over soft synth pad; kick drum pulses slowly.] We meet in careful fractures, ribbons of skin, of spirit, spooling toward each other through the measured ache of want. [Verse 1: Bass enters subtly, guitar plays interlocking patterns.] Your hands cross the unclaimed gaps, tracing what is mine yet half-forgotten, while my voice trembles through the spaces your heart dares to hold. [Chorus: Pads expand, drums grow more insistent.] Love is not seamless — it slices, smooth and slow, etching lines of belonging where we might vanish if we let it. [Verse 2: Drop to bass and drums only, vocals intimate.] For a breath, I recoil, fear a blade behind your warmth, but still, I breathe inside your unfinished shape, learning the contours of my own echo. [Bridge: Guitars swell with reverb, harmonies float above.] Each fragment a promise that I can be whole beside you, not devoured, but devoutly known. [Outro: Beat slows, guitar delay fades into silence.] Between mirrored wounds and gentle sutures, we stand: two broken infinities who choose, again and again, to bind.
