Today has been nothing short of extraordinary in my songwriting journey. In just a matter of hours, I wrote two completely different songs, each pulling me into a very different emotional space—and both brought me to tears.
The first, She Flies Her Kite, is ethereal and breathtaking. With female lead vocals, delicate backing vocals, mandolin, and flute, it captures a pure, almost magical sense of childhood wonder. Listening to it, I felt transported—like stepping into a world where light, love, and joy flow freely.
Moments later, I wrote Spread Those Wings, a melancholy yet high-energy tune featuring powerful male vocals and piano. The song dives deep into heartbreak, vulnerability, and the raw ache of lost love. The intensity of the emotion carried me immediately, and it’s hauntingly beautiful in a way that stays with you long after the last note.
What’s astonishing to me is how my mind works: one moment I’m in the gentle, floating world of a kite flying at midnight, the next I’m immersed in the storm of heartbreak. Both songs are fully realized in sound, emotion, and lyrical flow—yet neither was forced. They demanded to be written, and I just followed them.
I’ve never experienced songwriting like this before. Two songs in completely different genres, both fully formed and deeply affecting, created in the same day. It’s a glimpse into the way my creativity has evolved recently—fast, unpredictable, and profoundly moving.
I’d love to hear what others think about songs that can transport you so completely in just a few minutes. Have you ever written—or heard—something that made you stop and simply feel everything at once?
