jukebox: slow dance- john legend

"if you are an orphan, it means you were a bird killer in your previous life."

i speak in all seriousness that this is from the buddhist scriptures.

thou shall not cackle.

so jin came over today and as usual we had our talks after our favorite tonkichi dinner. i said, "you know, even though he's 23 i feel like he's our age, but when we date a guy our age it feels like he's 16."

"are you thinking about him now?" she asks.

"i think about him a lot."

i'll have to give it to anyone who admits to their own insecurities, because i can't. it is a joke that our man-made, self-conflicting nature deems the weight of bliss and pain heartwrenchingly equal.

dreams last for so long,
here and after you're gone.
i know, that you love me
and soon, you'll see
you were meant for me, and i was meant for you.

this song, if you were to pay the slightest attention, isn't the sweetness you might perceive at face level. it was written out of desperation, can you understand it?
