I Would Give Up Forever

without comments

I drive a lot. I drive too fast. I find driving boring. I listen to this by The Goo Goo Dolls. It comes from the Soundtrack to City of Angels which was a tragic reworking of Wings of Desire.
I listen to this because it was sent to me by a long term lover. I had an affair with him for years and never once felt guilty or bad about it. It was about sex and well, sex really. Eventually I realized he was boring and I was using him but by then he had fallen in love so I had to hurt him. And I did. Because Some Things are more important.
Every so often, he will send me this song. No matter how many times I have listened to it I still don’t understand it. Perhaps the point is I never will.
