I tell you this: it was love at first gesture<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve seen it in the darkness, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

then… \u201cbang, bang\u201d: light, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– beautiful, elegant, simple <\/p>\n\n\n\n

like a song, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

like music itself –<\/p>\n\n\n\n

entering the stage<\/p>\n\n\n\n

like an angel with long hands\/no wings<\/p>\n\n\n\n

.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loved the way your vibration entered my soul<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(everybody’s souls)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

like the light entering a crack <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and making the darkness disappear<\/p>\n\n\n\n

.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loved the way your body responded to your music<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and it became one, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

every gesture, every step, every scream <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I saw them<\/p>\n\n\n\n

dancing together<\/p>\n\n\n\n

like the notes in a chord, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

preparing to be born <\/p>\n\n\n\n

.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loved the way you talked\/sang to us<\/p>\n\n\n\n

like a parent who kisses his children goodnight<\/p>\n\n\n\n

.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I loved your smile <\/p>\n\n\n\n

.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(it was certainly the most sensitive and delicate performance I ever went to)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
