Composing : July by Kat Spencer

Kat Spencer

July

I wrote this song years ago, after losing my cat during a difficult stretch of my life. At the time, I didn’t know the song would stay with me the way it has — or that it would quietly resurface when loss showed up again.

This week, after losing Shade, I found myself thinking about how certain songs don’t belong to a moment so much as they hold one. They become a place you can return to when words aren’t enough.

Creativity doesn’t fix loss. But sometimes it gives it somewhere to live.

This is July.
