The piano begins almost alone, with each note leaving a soft halo before the next one answers.

A sustained bed opens underneath the piano, so the melody stops floating by itself and starts carrying a wider glow.

The middle gathers without getting sharp: the piano stays rounded, while the held harmony thickens the room around it.

The support eases away here, and the piano line is left more exposed, lighter at the edges.

The final chord does most of the speaking by fading; the pulse loosens into room tone and then into quiet.
