The Way Back Home

Sequoia (Lovers On The Mountain)

In The Morning

Find Our Way

This piece began as a reflection on age, wonder, and the universe. It carries the bittersweet truth that some of us may not live to see the answers we’ve always longed for the moment the sky finally “answers back.”

But it’s also a message of hope. Our place isn’t measured only by lifetimes. It’s carried forward in the songs we write, in the questions we refuse to let go of, and in the wonder we pass down.

The closing nod to Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star reminds us that curiosity is timeless from the child’s lullaby to the elder’s last reflection, we are joined by a shared yearning to understand.

This isn’t just about stars. It’s about legacy, belonging, and the truth that even if we don’t grow into tomorrow ourselves, a part of us will.

Some of us are too late in the day
To see the gates swing open
To watch the sky answer back

But we’ve left our fingerprints
On the glass of the telescope
Our breath fogging the lens
For the next set of eyes

The truth is our place
Isn’t just measured in lifetimes
It’s carried forward in songs
In questions that refuse to die
In the wonder we hand down

So even if I don’t grow into that tomorrow
A part of me will
In the echoes, in the chords
In the starlight that remembers
We once asked

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are

Oh, how we wonder

Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star
How I wonder what you are

Oh how we wonder
What you are

Yes we wonder

~ Lyrics:

Under the weight of what I didn't do 
I found myself hid under what I did
But I'm home for the summer smitten by a song 
I wish I'd writ ringing in my ears

And twenty-four years, I'd drive to the seaside 
For a coconut kiss and a place to hide
And so I'm reminded of a man who was blind 
When he'd talk talk talk and say nothing at all

I've never seen an eye so green 
She's the moon and I'm the sea
The keen perfume of jealousy 
I've never seen an eye so green

Under the weight of what I didn't do 
I found myself hid under what I did
But it's the end of the summer and at the foot of my bed 
Is the same old song running round my head

I've never seen an eye so green 
She's the moon and I'm the sea
The keen perfume of jealousy 
I've never seen an eye so green

You can say whatever you want my love, your love is back to front

📝 Lyrics:

Been wondering how i could belong here
Cause this sure as hell don’t feel like home
I don’t want to live and die here
Sometimes I just wanna go

Maybe it’s the girl
Or maybe it’s just God I’m running from
Maybe it’s this life
Of countless times that I have tried
to break i’ve tried to break
the cycles

I don’t know if I can keep on
Hearing all I’ve done wrong
seems like no one thinks that day’s gone
But I assure you it is done

Maybe it’s the girl
Or maybe it’s just God I’m running from
Maybe it’s this life
Of countless times that I have tried
to break i’ve tried to break
the cycles

In The Morning
