Happy 20th Birthday, Brandon - you are so loved - you are so missed - there are no words
MOST OF US GO TO OUR GRAVE WITH OUR MUSIC STILL INSIDE OF US.
Thousands of tears and more these eyes have cried
and thousands more lay in wait -
I am bathed with them
and yet my heart is still broken,
and all that is within me aches
with the loss of you, the wanting of you to be here with us again.
There is never a time for this that is right-
never a way that can prepare the heart
for this reft -you have passed through
my arms too soon, like sand flowing through fingers
I could not hold you here, though
I would try.
I know that your spirit flies free
and in the quiet depths of my heart, I can see you still
in the rhythm of the waves upon the shore
in the crisp fall air that fills my chest,
in the iridescent gleam of each dragonfly
skimming the surface between heaven and earth.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR FRIEND JULIET SIMMS WHO JUST SIGNED WITH EPIC - please, visit her site, listen to her awesome music and show your support “People always ask me to describe my songs or compare myself to someone,” Simms says. “I don’t know what to say. My songs are like a wave of electric butterflies crashing into a canvas garden.” She laughs. “There, I’ve said it.”
