Lots of people before me have experienced the same joys and sorrows around love that I have. I appreciate every moment, every lyric, and every sound of the music that helps solidify my love for Meli.
I've curated a playlist of the journey of our love so far that treks you down the path that we faced together, primarily through my lens.
The first five songs tell the story of a boy who struggles to understand what love means and how he navigates the consequences of not watering your plant. Love is curious, but curiosity...
The next section shows how even though I've grown into a man, I'm still struggling to actualize my position in the world. I reject everything in front of me because I don't believe it could be (that good or) real.
Finally, I reach the point in my life where I feel stable, but I don't know where we stand. Yet I double down and dedicate my heart to her. She's given me her all, and I'm blessed to be able to reciprocate.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. Please enjoy the tunes.
