"Healing Wounds" is a heartfelt soft rock ballad with a '90s influence, performed by a male vocalist. The song explores the painful healing process after a breakup, using vivid metaphors like a ship lost in a storm and a desert yearning for rain to convey emotional turmoil. The chorus frames the pain as a necessary price for past love, emphasizing the bittersweet nature of letting go. The bridge highlights the internal conflict between mind and heart, while the pre-chorus introduces forgiveness as a key to freedom. The outro reinforces the bittersweet nature of love and pain, ending with hope for a new beginning. Musically, the song likely features gentle electric guitar riffs, a steady drum beat, and possibly some keyboard elements typical of '90s soft rock, creating a nostalgic backdrop for the emotional lyrics.

This Year's Love

"Shattered" is a melancholic country-pop ballad that captures the raw devastation of loving someone who walks away before the story can begin - a desperate question left unanswered, a wound left open, a goodbye that never truly comes.

Featuring soft rock influences, emotional storytelling, and a hauntingly beautiful melody, this ballad is for anyone who has ever been left in the ruins of something that almost was.

Inspired by characters in Londinium Tales – Whispers of the Ashes, an urban fantasy novel where power, fate, and impossible love collide. Written by Michi Choo.

Shattered

"You Have No Idea" is a bittersweet contemporary country-pop ballad, an emotional confession left unspoken about the struggle between love and self-preservation, where longing is buried beneath walls too high to break. It’s a song for anyone who’s ever loved in silence, held back by fear, and chosen to walk away before they lost themselves completely.

Inspired by characters in Londinium Tales – Whispers of the Ashes, an urban fantasy novel where love, duty, and destiny collide in the hidden depths of London. Written by Michi Choo.

You Have No Idea

I hate to break it to you, but in every universe you fumble her

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J43LLaEJ4Eo

you fumble her

When you scream at Ghosts....

I met a masked robber at an open bar at Mardi Gras
He smiled and said ” I’m gonna steal your heart”
I said, if you’re trying to get my attention 
That’s a pretty good place to start 
I'd never thought he'd break my heart


I fell hard and fast
I thought, this kind of love could last
But....damn 
How could I have been so wrong?
Different dancer,  same song 
by the time the fall leaves fell
he was gone


It’s too late to apologize
It’s too late to expect you’d be a stand-up guy 
I’m tired of asking why...
There is nothing you can say or do
You're a masked robber on the loose
but I need a mercy from you


If you ever loved me 
Why'd you ghost me?
I need your ghost to come back


I need the ghost of you to come back
Take back all the love we made
Take back all of the reasons you couldn’t stay 
Take back all of the memories we ever made 
Take back everything that reminds me of you
 keep looking over your shoulder, 
I need closure,
This Louisiana girl needs to bury you


I sleep on your side of the bed
Where your head used to rest
I know that doesn't make sense 
I still don't know why you left
This is the state of affairs 
you left me in 
Was I not worth an explanation?
 I still feel your breath on my skin


I still go to Welty's  on Saint Charles Avenue
Our usual waitress, Miss Olivia 
she doesn't ask about you 
a knowing look, she says, 
Sugar, are you doin' okay?
I can barley nod, yes
Because inside I'm dying 
She knows I 'm lying

I could tell her you moved to California
But the truth is to this day
I don't know where you are either way


It’s too late to apologize
It’s too late to expect you’d be a stand-up guy 
I’m tired of asking why
There is nothing you can say or do
You're a masked robber on the loose
But I need a mercy from you


If you ever loved me 
Why'd you ghost me ?
I need your ghost to come back


I need the ghost of you to come back
Take back all the love we made
Take back all of the reasons you couldn’t stay
take back all of the memories we ever made 
Take back everything that reminds me of you
 keep looking over your shoulder,  I need closure,
This Louisianna girl needs to bury you


I'm gonna bury you 
I'm gonna bury you
