Never forget

As this moment passes

We will grow old.
We will lose hope.
We will have to ask for forgiveness.

We will find ourselves in our parents’ shoes.
And someday in our grandparents’ shoes.
And we will wonder
If we did the right thing.

Yet never forget

This moment of possibility:
Never forget
That we have two eyes, two legs to stand on.
Never forget
That this moment is ours to create.

We could change the future and make history
This time to never forget
The living hopes and dreams that shaped today.

And to never forget
That life goes around in circles
This is our turn.

I know I haven’t posted much, let alone music, in quite a while — though that does not mean I haven’t been working persistently on both. I am very excited to finally share a new musical composition. I woke up this morning with the intention to create music, and work this tune that had developed by accident in the last few days. Originally, I had intended to put up an entirely different piece. However, this one stuck in my head constantly and just would not leave until I had completed it.

This is the first time I have done multi-track recording in a very long time (I believe on the last, I was about 9 years old). With cornelius’s suggestion to try multiple instruments in my mind, I tried adding a flute to the mix. Another instrument was added, and soon another. Keeping in mind that I never claimed that I could play flute, I will simply sing the praises of digital pitch correction. Hopefully this is what you had in mind, cornelius.
