Sayonara yasashikatta egao

(BUCK-TICK. "Jupiter." Kurutta Taiyou. Victor, 1991)

I'm numb. This is not to say that I do not feel anything. On the contrary; I feel too much. Emotions combine and churn. Some conflict while some augment others. My psyche has shut down from the overload. I once heard that the ture definition of Hell is an absolute lack of the presence of God. If I were a man of any amount of faith, I would describe myself as being in Hell.

Bump

Hello, yeah, it's been a while.

Not much, how 'bout you?

I'm not sure why I called,

I guess I really just wanted to talk to you.

And I was thinking maybe later on,

We could get together for a while.

It's been such a long time,

And I really do miss your smile.

(England Dan & John Ford Coley. "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight." Nights Are Forever, 1976)

Have I used that one before?  I should keep track.
