“Acceptance of You“ by Megan Wheeler

“Acceptance of You” by Megan Wheeler is a poignant song exploring the aftereffects of heartbreak, offering a hopeful perspective despite all of the pain that comes with losing someone you love. Wheeler is a multifaceted pop artist who effortlessly delivers compelling narratives, intimate production, and beautiful vocals that immediately turn you into a fan. For anyone who is working on accepting the fact that a relationship is over, “Acceptance of You” is a comforting track that belongs on your playlist. 

This song opens with lightly plucking acoustic guitar that continues throughout the track, building the backbone as other instruments, as well as the main vocal, play on top of it. A catchy, energetic beat joins the arrangement later, contrasting slightly with the melancholy, intimate mood of the beginning to represent the growing hope that Wheeler is cultivating. Meandering melodies shift between a lilting, pretty vocal delivery and a more rhythmic one, holding your attention from start to finish.

Lyrics like “no matter how much it hurts, I accept the pain of it” and “I used to think that I only wanted you, but now I’ve come to the acceptance of you” beautifully represent the themes of this song. Wheeler explores her arrival at the final stage of grief- acceptance. Though it still hurts sometimes, and though she can’t forget all of the good times that she had with this person, she realizes that she can no longer put off moving on. “Acceptance of You” carries an inspiring message about the possibility of hope and heartbreak existing simultaneously.
