Until I Had None Left To Give
So, I already had an entry for this challenge, and would have loved to have done something using my voice, etc., but I do not really have the resources or the budget for that. My first entry was solely the lyrics and structure, with lots of information about how I would have composed it if I had the time, resources, and skills.

Bound by Fate
I was excited to write a song again because I haven’t written one in a long time. I lost my passion and inspiration after I lost someone from my family, but I am glad I found it again. I wrote this song because I really wanted to tell my story of how I met the only man I have ever truly loved. Plus, my best friend had been pushing me to go back to writing songs, and she had been telling me for a while now to write a song about my love story. I wasn’t sure if I would ever fall in love again because the last man, I was with hurt me so deeply, and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to give my heart away again. But that’s when I started my freshman year in college, and I found the man that had now stolen my heart. We both started off as best friends in college but, then we had gone our separate ways. He was a super senior in college and I was a freshman. I was instantly locked on him when I first him, but my heart was still guarded. I was in denial with what I was feeling but I couldn’t, and I knew what it was. I have never fallen that hard for someone before but, something felt just so right about him. I should have told him at the end of that one year how I felt before he left to go to graduate school. But we then were reunited 7 years later, and as we were getting to know each other all over again. I was wondering if I really was falling in love all over again, but I was keeping my heart guarded. But there was just something so magnetic that kept pulling me toward him, and I was listening to my intuition and I just felt safe around him. I kept wondering whether I should tell him how I feel or not; or I could keep asking myself what would happen if I didn’t. But shortly afterwards, we both ended up confessing our true feelings for one another that we both hid from one another after all these years. After being with him for the last couple of years I have learned a lot of lessons which changed both me and him for the better. So, I mostly want to dedicate this song to him and show how much he truly means to me and show how we’ve gotten this far even with just a few bumps in the road that were doable, and that we can weather any storm.

Allowed to Be. Content Warning.
I wrote this while feeling frustration and anger over the current state of society. I have never understood the determination of some to try to force their beliefs and opinions on others, while still claiming they support freedom and equality. I have studied several religions through my life before finding that Wicca vibes best with my personal opinions and views. Empathy has always been a very strong aspect of my inner self and something I was grateful to been so connected with.
