Today we explore and talk about one of my favorite pieces I've written and what turned out to be my favorite piece on my album, The Elementalist. This episode seems like it bounces all over the place but we do gain a focus and hone onto it early on.

Light

Glimmer

There was a little bit of hope left that things would turn around

Hope is healthy sometimes, keeps you going
When you can't see in the dark
When your feet can't carry you much further
When your body fails and limb and life give way

It can keep you going, a flashlight through the infinite
A beam through the despair
A glimmer of light in a dark cavern

Shine

You are my beacon

And when I say you shine so bright
It's because I can't see anything else but your light

And when I can't find my way home
I'll look for your light alone
No GPS, no telephone
Just all the light that you have shone

Lighting

The way the light hit your face and split it into two like a black and white cookie, was and continues to be a story in and of itself

You sat there balancing light and dark, like some of us try to do everyday

But it was at peace on your face and I wondered if this was your true state because I've seen the light and dark of many things before and it fit so snugly

The way the light split your face in half, it was like a Ying and a Yang, swirling around each other, perfectly balanced, the way the light hit your face was like lightning striking in the sky, the way the light hit your face was like God splitting the sky open and letting his angels through the gate to do what they do, the disparity of our ugly, dark world against the magnificence and splendor of
