I wrote this after my mom died, and it took me a couple of years to finish. It was going to go on the next A Fragile Tomorrow record, but as most folks know, I recently moved on from the band. This song meant a lot to me, though, so I wanted to do something with it in honor of my mom. So this is the original demo version with some added instrumentation from my brother Sean Kelly and legendary cellist Dave Eggar.
I hope you like this. It's a piece of my heart that I wanted to share.
Any money raised will go to Our House Grief Support Center in Los Angeles - an amazing organization that saved my life after my mom's death.

This is for you, mom, the day before what would have been your 55th birthday. Keep whispering, I hear you.
