I am the listener
Well before there was something to be said, I was here
Many have argued whether or not sound exists without me
But what is often overlooked, in the midst of these debates
Is the true importance of the relationship between sound and those who perceive it
Sound can be defined as something heard
But in essence is a cycle of vibrations that move through matter
As the listener, I vow to maintain the ability to define these vibrations
And therefore amplify them with my actions
It is in my hands to allow what I hear to fade to silence or to be given meaning
As these actions remain, I become the echo that prolongs the life of a sound
And as sound is essentially a movement
Ultimately, the fate of a movement lies within me, the listener
