and if you call, i will answer
and if you fall, i'll pick you up
and if you court this disaster
i'll point you home
come to think of it, call and answer is a very angry song. but it was while listening to it that the entire weight of our situation hit me and i finally broke down.
i was in my room, listening to some songs we shared some affinity with; five songs later, i was still crying. it was the first time i cried since monday night. no, it was the first time i cried since june, two days after my birthday, when i called daryl on the phone and i ended up sobbing and he rushed from his mom's place to comfort me.
at some point i stopped, then ray charles started singing i can't stop loving you and i started crying all over again. daryl sang that song to me one month before, hugging me while i sobbed on his shoulder. i kept thinking if he had been doing the same thing in his room; neither of us could hold each other now.
and if you fall, i'll pick you up
and if you court this disaster
i'll point you home
