I Was Never Alone - Rumi

“The Friend was nearer than flesh and bone.”

A song for the seasons of feeling utterly alone — and the slow discovery that the silence was never absence, but a nearer kind of presence. Built on scattered santoor, a lonely cello drone, and a soft frame-drum heartbeat, with ney and rabab drifting above, it’s for anyone who has mistaken solitude for abandonment.

🎧 Best experienced with headphones.
