I had a really vivid dream about Mcr. I was back there and I was in Night & Day. Faces I haven't seen for over 10, maybe more years were talking to me. Telling me things they didn't tell me a the time.
When I woke I felt like I really understood some things I had never understood before. Some sort of healing had happened. It felt sweet, and I felt settled. It stayed with me all day.
All day I was wondering what it meant.
L decided to take me to experience some thing American I'd never seen before. We ended up in this place. And sitting there, on the inhouse muzak system I heard these words:
"I ain't ever going back.
Back to the place that I can't stand
But I, I miss the way you lie..."
The track is by a band called Doves. The man I built my life with in Mcr had developed the album for the band. It was released the year he and I got engaged. He and the band were awared gold discs for the album.
It was a line of song about a former life on a day when I was wondering what a dream about a former time and place could mean.
I looked outside the window.
The piece of Americana L had brought me to for lunch was called Hometown.
L kissed me on the forehead. We talked about what the rest of our lives might look like.
I kept hearing the last line as: "I miss the way you laugh."
Love carries us through.
Time and Space.
