In loving memory of Nicole. Counterpoint To Sorrow is a deeply personal reflection written a year after losing the love of my life. Grief is never a straight line; it’s a pendulum that swings between the sharp pain of absence and the gentle comfort of knowing she is at peace. Moving from delicate, emotive chords to driving, cathartic rhythms, this track mirrors the waves of mourning. It is a song for anyone trying to navigate the heavy silence of loss, and a reminder that true love eventually learns to live beside the pain. H.B., this is for you.more
