Juxtaposition between this and the sweetness of Strawberry Swing just before is just sublime. |

Beautiful Frank Ocean. The library is a metaphor for a past relationship that he can't quite let go of. Although the person he was in love with is flouted the conventions of the library (ie the accepted conventions of a relationship) which is supposed to be a quiet place of study by laughing, talking etc he can't comply with what would be the accepted response and throw them out.
In other words although she didn't behave in the way she should have done in their relationship he still can't let go of her memory. She hurt him and although the best advice he received was to 'keep writing, and keep living, and keep loving' after she left he 'quit writing, kept living, kept loving'. The relationship changed him forever and even though he has carried on with his life a fundamental part of who he was has been lost forever. |
