It was a dark period \u2014 battling addiction, locking himself in a shadowed room, smashing guitars against the walls. Gwen didn\u2019t leave. She didn\u2019t offer empty advice. She simply sat down on the floor beside the broken pieces of wood and began humming an old hometown melody Blake\u2019s mother used to sing. In that deepest darkness, Blake realized the light of his life wasn\u2019t a Grammy. It was Gwen \u2014 messy hair, bare face, singing off-key, patiently holding his hand.
