The verse about love got me. I'm not sure it's an intended meaning, but it's what it meant to me. I lost a friend who I loved very much. She stopped caring about me and disappeared. And that relationship is still the closest thing I've come to feeling like somebody really loved me. And yet: is that all there is to love?; that they just leave, like that? That it just ends, with a whimper? It's a very sad thought that the idea I have of love does not actually exist in the world, and the closest I can get is deludedly thinking that someone loves me, for a few years, until they get bored and disappear, and the meaning and reality of that love disappears in a puff of smoke.
