This song was written about someone I deeply cared about who sadly passed away in 2023. Her death is so sudden that I didn't get to tell her how I really feel and this song sums up the regrets and longing that I feel now that she's gone. Also, the day she passed, I made a promise that I will write a song in her honor and this is the second one written for and about her.

LYRICS

Chaque matin je me lève, avec le poids  du passé,
Cette maison vide, témoin de mes amours absents.
Les souvenirs m’étreignent, ils ne me quittent jamais,
Je vis dans l’ombre de ce que j’ai laissé passer.

Les remords m’encerclent, ils sont là, tout autour,
Je tente de respirer, mais mes pensées m’étouffent toujours.
Je veux juste un instant, un instant de répit,
Mais les souvenirs s’accrochent, et s'accrochent, encore et encore.

Je cherche la sérénité, dans un océan de doutes,
Mais mes pensées me piègent, elles me cachent la route.
Je veux fuir ces regrets, mais ils sont ancrés en moi,
Je suis perdu dans le temps, prisonnière de ma propre foi.

 Les jours se suivent, ils sont pareils, et sans éclat,
Je suis prisonnière d'un tourbillon qui n'en finit pas.
Les erreurs de ma jeunesse me hantent sans répit,
Je veux trouver la paix, mais le passé me poursuit.

Je cherche la sérénité, dans un océan de doutes,
Mais mes pensées me piègent, elles me cachent la route.
Je veux fuir ces regrets, mais ils sont ancrés en moi,
Je suis perdu dans le temps, prisonnière de ma propre foi.

Je revois les visages, les rires que j’ai oubliés,
Je revois les chemins que je n’ai jamais empruntés.
Chaque décision, chaque choix me revient en face,
Et je me demande encore, où est passée ma grâce.

Mais le temps est cruel, il n'attend jamais,
Et les remords me tiennent, je n'arrive plus à m'évader,
Alors je marche seule, dans le silence de ma nuit,
Les ombres du passé me suivent, elles me guident sans bruit.
Je suis enfermée dans ce cycle, sans fin et sans espoir.

The Aim of My Life  (Feat Mike Danso) (Funky - Dance Floor)

“Wishful Regret” speaks through melody rather than words. The music carries the quiet ache of looking back and wishing something had unfolded differently, while knowing the past can’t be changed. Its tones move gently between longing and acceptance, capturing the unspoken what ifs of the heart. Rather than fighting the past, the piece reflects on it with tenderness—letting hope, sorrow, and memory exist in the same breath.

No Regrets

A musician and composer since my teens, I have developed a world where the guitar remains the anchor of my creations. Passionate about progressive, cinematic, and epic atmospheres, I explore a wide spectrum ranging from rock, folk, and pop to more organic and atmospheric sounds.
As a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, bass, piano, synth), I compose, record, and play all the parts myself, always seeking to create pieces that evolve slowly but intensely, like a musical journey.
After playing in several rock, pop, blues rock, and alternative rock bands, and performing on stage in Paris and abroad, I broadened my horizons by also composing for other artists.
Today, my goal is to put this experience to use in visual and narrative projects: music for films, series, commercials, and video games. My approach is versatile: I can bring to life intimate folk ballads as well as raw and powerful compositions, always in the service of emotion

Bonjour, message pour toutes les agences de musique numérique. Vous êtes devenues trop nombreuses pour que je puisse répondre à chacune, donc j’envoie une réponse générale à tous ! Contrairement à ce que mon profil professionnel indique, je ne vis pas de la musique, qui est devenue un hobby fou pour moi, car je ne compose que depuis 2024. Mon rêve n'est pas d'avoir des streams, mais plutôt de trouver des groupes ou des chanteurs capables de défendre mes chansons sur scène. Merci pour votre message, et ainsi, chacun d'entre vous aura une réponse claire et simple ! Salutations ! (Je reçois tranquillement entre 9 000 et 15 000 streams par semaine, sans acheter de streams, juste des streams réels). Je n'ajouterai pas d'autres réponses et je tiens à remercier ceux qui ont pris le temps de laisser un message aimable de soutien pour mes compositions. Salutations à tous !
