An eon of dreamless dark
A promise long forgotten
Time pass'd through my fingers
Like water through a sieve

Outside of the walls
A wanton hunger stirs
I have ventured deep below
But may never return

The cover artwork is originally an etching by Edmund Monsiel (1897-1962) that I inverted to white-on-black, and adjusted the contrast to give it more dark tones.

Reverie

It's been seven years since my first album, Home was completed. I started composing music roughly in 2014, so I wrote this piece as a cover and re-arrangement of the title track. I thought it would be interesting to see the progress I've made over the years. The original can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/aidanclare/home

Edit: For some reason staccato strings and the piano just sound like they're not synchronized with one another. Not sure if this is an acoustical phenomenon or if it just do be like that sometimes.

Home, Revisited
