How do you say goodbye?

(Christopher Van Name)

Our son, Julian, passed away in February at age 31. A beautiful soul. How do you say goodbye to someone you love so much? To anyone who brought so much light into your life?

How do you put a life into words
When you don’t understand the ending 
How do you bring a song to life 
When the melody has died
How do you find a way to define 
A love that’s never ending 
How do you make all the tears you’ve cried 
Find a way to let him go 

How do you go on 
When so much if you is gone 
How do you hold on 
When your heart is broken 
And how can you let go 
When you’re not sure he’ll ever know 
How much you love him 
And why so much was left unspoken 

How do you live the rest of your life 
Without drowning in your sorrow 
How do you give tomorrow a chance 
To make you laugh again 
How do you hold him in your heart
When both your arms are empty 
How do you ever dream again 
When you’re afraid to close your eyes 

And how can you be strong 
When you know it won’t be long
‘Till everything you’ve known 
Has changed forever 
And how will you live on 
When you look beyond today 
And realize that he’s gone 
And you feel lost forever 

How do you put a life into words 
When it’s story’s never ending 
How do you keep the music alive 
So everyone will know 
How do you tell your broken heart
That it can’t keep on pretending 
How do you say goodbye 
When you know you won’t let go
How do you say goodbye
When you love him so

The Embrace

By Christopher Van Name

Inspired by Hank Willis Thomas’s bronze sculpture, “The Embrace”, which was installed on Boston Commons in Boston, Massachusetts, US last year. It depicts the four arms intertwined, symbolizing the hug that Dr. Martin Luther King and his wife, Coretta Scott King, shared after he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. I tried to imagine the emotions that Dr. King might have been feeling.

Hello, moon

I had a conversation a few days ago with a homeless person. His name was Tom. He was walking down the road, heading south. I asked him if he ever got lonely for someone to talk to. He said, “I’ve got the moon”. This one’s for Tom.

Unbroken

By Christopher Van Name

I continue to be amazed and inspired by the courage and perseverance of the Ukrainian people. Fighting and dying, Street by street, yard by yard, on their homeland for the right to self-determination and the very freedom we take for granted. I shouldn’t be surprised. I married one! For my wife, Adela, and the gallant people of Ukraine and the late Richard D. Hanusey, EdD.

Rat race

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about the craziness of living in the world today. No one has time for anybody anymore, everybody's just moving at such a fast Pace. Simple pleasures are no longer simple, everything is a fight, it's just an arduous task to get through a day. All the distractions, the traffic on the roads, and the angry people behind the wheel. There's so much distraction, so much temptation, and so much aggravation. It's really hard to take, and it won't be long before the world just blows up totally. There's so many wars and so much hate I'm not sure how much longer this can last.

Making it

By Edward McBride

This song describes the hopes and dreams of a poor cotton picker in the Southern United States. He picks cotton by day and picks on his guitar at night. He stays humble as he starts to get noticed and gets signed up by an agent. The rise is rapid as he soon opens for some big stars in Nashville. Through it all he remains humble.

Attention Seeker

By Thelma Oragbon

The act of attention seeking is fervently looked down upon. But in these rap lyrics, the protagonist spins the term "attention seeker" in a positive way, owning and embracing the phrase to portray their confidence and irresistibility.
