Oh. From the first notes you had me. Beautiful progression and the tone of the guitar is perfect, and both meld with your voice so elegantly. The lyrics are so nice, the image of the flightless child is kind of haunting. Yes, grow wings flightless child. <3

Thanks @luzcypher, I do plan on recording a video for Voices of Open Mic, hopefully tomorrow. Due to man-cold and general lack of sleep I have opted for warm bath tonight however 😄

The sadness, anxiety, and depression of these emotions from your friend are well depicted in your song. Carry on and take care of her. The quiet desperation of many living is such a hard thing to address and to know what to do to help. Music is a great way to bring some reprieve. Thanks for sharing! Now following you.

Thank you @andrewdaines, it is indeed hard to know what to do and how to help. I think an element of my own feeling of helplessness plays out in this song. Appreciate your support, cheers!
