Indigo//The Moon. Perspective on our own lives is gained through observing the lives of those we love. You are my perspective, and I am yours, and together we are certain of the other, yet uncertain of ourselves. You see my flowers and yearn to grow your own without this simple realisation: Your tree is already bearing fruit.
Does a flower know that it is blooming? Does fruit know that it is sweet? Do you? Or are you in the dark?
My love, why are you so blue?
Tides//The Sun. Our days start with two names and eye contact. They end with the same. Everything around and in between is constantly changing. Can we exist and thrive together despite our constantly changing selves? Can we bear that weight for each other?
Give up your gravity to me. Give all your gravity to me.
These songs are about finding strength, courage, and peace with and through the people we love. We hope you find yours.
