"I wrote this song during the pandemic when I was staying at a beautiful, old farmhouse in New Hampshire with my husband. At the time, I was thinking about how the end of a love story could unfold in this setting, though luckily it’s wasn’t my own!. I’ve always wanted to incorporate influences from Robert Frost’s beautiful poem ‘After Apple Picking’ into a song and I felt as though this was the perfect opportunity. I endeavored to make each chorus a little bit different from the last, but also like an incantation or a spell. There’s a strong element of the supernatural that runs throughout the entire album, of Old Gods, Paganism and the Divine Feminine. Ultimately, this song is another expression of that overarching theme. A special thank you to my husband Carmine, whose degree in Philosophy and study of Ancient Greek and Latin was most helpful in learning the proper pronunciation of ‘Theia’." ~ Kyle Carey
