Girl

When I hear the song Girl by John Lennon it haunts with the unrelenting tormented rapture I spent those years with my first soulmate. I was stuck in the environ of an Elvis movie everyone expected us to live in those days, until John Lennon educated me about what life was really about. The song sums up perfectly my relationship with my soulmate as if it was the whole soundtrack of the movie never made about us. You can sum up the song and my years with her in one seductive sentence.

Life is for living.

And all that it implies.

We were both very religious and that made the relationship all the more intriguing. It was with religious wonderment that we entered the domain of sin and the deeper the sin the more it haunted us, but all the more was the allure. Somehow the depth of feeling seemed purer as we plunged where love was felt with more conviction knowing we shared a passion worth going to hell for.

And we went to hell and back.
