Music as well as photography in my opinion are the real time machines, by listening or observing we relive the moment over and over again....
There is a song written by the Cuban troubadour poet Silvio Rodriguez called "La canción del elegido" (The song of the chosen one). This famous and popular song has been covered by several artists, the one I like the most is by the Venezuelan singer Soledad Bravo, with her vocal strength and tenderness.
The profound lyrics of this song speak to us of the immortality of the soul, of the being that transcends the misplaced ego, of the importance of relating with love, filling us with joy.
I chose this beautiful song to sing every day to a creature who gave me the most extraordinary eight months of my existence.
Without planning it, he came into my life and from the first moment that little being with his powerful name Magno, became the most important thing, the love that transcends, the immortal love. Every morning we communicated through my voice that travelled to him through the umbilical cord, that's how he listened to me in stereo, at least that's how we felt.
Just by listening to the melody of that song, the little creature would turn around and pull the cord, that was his way of telling me that he was ready to listen to the resonance of my voice that vibrated to him.
Days went by, between stories, songs, stories, laughter, caresses, delicious food and fruits, we were built in the most solid love.
Until suddenly there was a short circuit turning off the sound, everything became silent, my voice was no longer heard and the little creature stopped moving.
That beautiful song stopped playing for a long time. Trying to understand the reason for what happened, I submerged myself in a whirlwind of feelings, losing myself in that storm for I don't know how long.
Until I decided to stop floating in the deep, cold sea, because I realised that I was never alone... loved ones were there, helping me to surface and to take a big breath of air, feeling alive again...
Little by little I was rebuilding myself and reconciling with life. After a long time I was able to listen to that song. I remember one afternoon on the bus home it was playing in the background, I smiled looking out of the window, a star twinkled in the clear blue sky and I knew it was the little creature, since then it has become eternal.
I hope you like my participation. Thank you Mr. @Galenkp
