This one's based on the Prelude in C Minor by Bach. I call it 'Memory'

A soft tone, repitition

I give myself to the quiet pitch

waves move over me and behind

soaring through the chords

my mind the blank canvas

of desire and wanting given easily

into this further disquiet and recapitulation

still simple, the most complicated thing

it's quiet now, and the last note

is played out and sustained

I understand it better now

a recollection severed.
