My Song - "For You"

I know it has been a while since we performed our own songs for the class, but this song assignment made me reflect back on the creative process of writing and singing my song ("For You") for the class.

Writing my own song was a deeply aesthetic and personal experience. I incorporated my idea of beauty into the song. The song was written, despite the title, for not one person in particular, but rather for whoever would be willing to listen to me at the time. My philosophy is very simple: Life is a song, enjoy the melody, do not be afraid of death. It is a beautiful, inevitable phase of living. The beauty of life is the fact that it is finite, but we are unique contributor's to the novel of Earth.
