I got such great news today, that I wanted to share one of my more positive songs. I wrote this almost exactly a year ago. I was in an unusually hopeful mood which I had to mark somehow. So I wrote this poem and soon after put it to piano, just to remember how well and free I felt then and feel so close to right now. The photos are ones I took at Spring Grove Cemetery near my home in Cincinnati (the art and overall grounds of that cemetery always takes my breath away) I know it's a strange pairing for such a song, but at the time it made sense to me as a way to share both at once...lol

 
Breathless and without motion,
I am taken alive. My head is
Lifted toward the light and
Every inch inside is with a
Dreaming of the sky.

Now there is no such thing as time.
There is no reason to worry and
From nothing must I hide
When this close to the soul,

When this far from the ghost
And all I've known of empty,
Living in loss.
This time those awful promises
Bleed of me no cost.
The pain and end to everything
Will not be made my fault.

When this close to soul
The settled path need not show,
A forward wind need not blow
As I'm more than willing to let go.

When this close
I am home.

There are certainly a lot of great structures there and your song compliments the footage.
The piano is very powerful , as are the words.
Well done.
