New Release: 'When's the Last Time' is out now.
This song came from the terrifying moment when you look at the person you love most and feel the ground starting to crack beneath you. Things are falling apart. You do not know how or why or how to stop it. Every conversation feels like it could be the last one that matters. Every silence feels like a warning. Every touch feels fragile. You kiss them and the thought hits like a punch: this might be the last time.
You hold them and wonder if this is the last time you will feel their arms around you. The last time their breath is on your neck. The last time their heartbeat syncs with yours. The fear is suffocating. The heartbreak is immediate. The sadness is overwhelming. You are so afraid of what comes next that you cannot breathe. You are so afraid of losing them that the present moment feels like it is already gone.
The Weight of the Last
The possibility of "last" is the heaviest thing you can carry. It turns every second into a countdown. It turns every glance into a goodbye you are not ready to say. It turns every "I love you" into a plea. The weight is in knowing you cannot force it to stay. You cannot make them stay. You cannot make the cracks seal themselves. All you can do is feel it. All you can do is hold on as tightly as you dare. All you can do is pray that this is not the last time.
The "Still Here" Perspective
I have learned that love is not about never facing the possibility of last. It is about choosing to hope anyway. I cannot make things work out. I cannot make the fear disappear. I definitely cannot make the future certain. But I can hope with every fiber of my soul that it will work out. I can hope that this kiss is not the last. I can hope that this hold is not the last. I can hope that tomorrow brings repair instead of goodbye. I can hope that the person I love so much will still be here. Because hope is the only thing stronger than the fear of last.
If you have ever kissed someone you love and felt the terrifying possibility that it might be the last time . . if you have ever held them and wondered if the next morning would bring goodbye . . if you have ever been so heartbroken and so scared that all you could do was hope . . this song is for you.
