Fa male uno schiaffo, una litigata, veder piangere una persona a te cara, un addio, un semplice saluto negato. Fa male essere feriti, ma fa ancora più male essere ignorati.
Ma nulla, nulla fa male quanto vedere la persona di cui sei innamorata regalare i suoi sorrisi e le sue attenzioni ad una persona che non sei tu.
Quando succede, pensi che quella persona avresti potuto essere tu, ma in realtà sei da sola ad osservare. Oggi mi è capitato di riflettere su questo quando, in biblioteca, ho visto tre ragazzi seduti vicini. Due di loro erano una coppia, apparentemente felice ed affiatata. La terza persona era una ragazza, e mentre gli altri due ridevano e scherzavano sottovoce, sussurrandosi frasi dolci nell'orecchio, lei osservava il ragazzo con sguardo malinconico e rassegnato. In quella ragazza ho rivisto me stessa in questo momento: sapere che lui è andato avanti, mentre io sono ferma al punto di partenza, non mi va giù. Immaginarlo mentre stringe tra le braccia un'altra ragazza, mentre la bacia, le sorride, la riempie di attenzioni, mi fa più male di una pugnalata al petto. E vedere ogni loro gesto, nella mia mente, mi fa cadere sempre più il mondo addosso.
Io mi chiedo: come può una persona dipendere in maniera così spropositata da un'altra, da doversi aggrappare ai ricordi vissuti con essa per poter trovare pace? Come può qualcuno essere padrone della felicità di un essere umano?
Con questo rapido pensiero vi lascio e vi auguro una buona notte, sperando che essa vi porti consiglio e possa alleviare ogni vostra sofferenza.
I heard
That you're settled down
That you
Found a girl
And you're
Married now
I heard
That your dreams came true
I guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
It ain't like you to hold back or hide from the lie.
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah,
You know how the time flies,
Only yesterday was the time of our lives,
We were born and raised in a summer haze,
Bound by the surprise of our glory days,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Nothing compares,
No worries or cares,
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made,
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
