All my life, though
some have changed
Sometimes nature reflects your mood. The brooding clouds come rolling in, bringing
with them a sense of gloom. A malevolent
presence entices you to the dark side.
All these places had
their moments
Yet in the midst of this oppressive time, there is a light, a
flame that flickers in the dark.
There is no one compares with you
It gives you courage and the strength to find a way out of
the gloom. All the light we cannot see.
In my life I love you

It didn't feel right to have a Beatles song and a dark story. So here is a second one for the week, referencing another song and a hidden reference to one of the best books I read in this past year.
Dear Subroto,
ReplyDeleteYou've roped me in with the song that's among my top five Beatles songs. Nice job of weaving the lines into your story.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Now I know how to get you to read my stories :-) Thanks for your comments Rochelle, I am glad you liked it.
DeleteI agree with Rochelle. One of my favourite Beatles tracks. Clever linking the two.
ReplyDeleteAll we need is Beatles songs. Thanks for your comments Lindy, I am glad you liked it.
DeleteI love the song, too! I once was asked to sing it during a wedding service. It felt a little weird. Although the final line is "I love you more," it seems like a lot of the song is about past loves. Not the usual fare for a wedding! Ah, well, it was a lovely song and a lovely wedding. Also, this is a lovely story!
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed about past love and experiences. But it's also about expressing one's love for someone, by comparing them to the past. Thank you for your comments Jan I am glad you liked it.
DeleteSuddenly, the last sentence puts things in a new perspective. Beatles number has been impeccably picked.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments, Umashankar I am glad you liked it.
DeleteI like the way it ends on a more hopeful note.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading and commenting Sandra
DeleteYou can't go wrong with the Beatles. I loved that book, too. Have reccomended to everyone!
ReplyDeleteThe book of the year for me so far. Thanks for your comments Ruth.
DeleteNothing wrong with love
ReplyDeleteAnd the Beatles sang it best 'all we need is love'. Thanks for your comments Russell.
DeletePerfect choice of song and it meshes so well with your story. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I can't claim any credit for the work of the musical genius who wrote the song but I'll take your praise for the story.
DeleteLove and life are both the same.
ReplyDeleteTrue though a cynic might add hate to the mix. Thanks for reading and commenting Björn.
DeleteIt's well he has a bright spot in his life as he seems prone to depression. I hope the love helps him through the rough spots. Well done, Subroto. --- Suzanne
ReplyDeleteYou've picked up correctly on his mood. Thanks for your comments Suzanne, I am glad you liked it.
