Alright, today it’s a song once again, I hope you don’t mind. But somehow it has been stuck in my mind the entire day and its sad melancholical feeling has stalked me somehow. Well, it’s November and even though it is not raining the world here is grey and preparing for winter to arrive, a season I don’t really enjoy.
November Rain is one of my ‘favourite’ sad songs – if sad songs can be anything close to a favourite. Whenever I hear it, I somehow feel my heart tense up and I have to think of all the moments of love lost and long gone. Moments when I was truly happy and my little world seemed just perfect. But we all know how long those moments last, don’t we? Not even glass is as fragile as those precious little moments of love and happiness. It’s a song that makes your feeling pour out of your heart like the November Rain pours down on the earth. It’s something everyone of us has experienced or will experience at some point in their life.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not trying to sound all depressed now, certainly not. Love, and that is what this song is about, is the one feeling that makes us truly alive. I would not want to miss it, even if it hurts and gnaws on my heart. It’s my greatest weakness and my greatest strength. So how about you sit with my for a while and listen to that beautiful rock ballad by guns ‘n’ roses. We’ll pick up a book after that again – I already know which one. (Expect the review soon!)
