RE: Turn My Head

I keep saying I'm not much into poetry, but I keep finding really good poems on Hive, like this one you wrote.

I need to run away often to find what I didn't know was missing.

That's my favorite line. Something I still need to think about at my age, which probably matches your gramma.

I still enjoy the songs I listened to in my teen years, although a new song occasionally catches my attention. Too many recording artist these days are just a pretty/handsome face or a sexy body with a lousy voice and good publicity. Yes, those have always been around,but it seems like there are more of them now.

Never heard of Larkin Poe, but I did enjoy that song, and I didn't think the video was all that nauseatingly cutesy. "Easy love," something we imagine will last forever when we are young, but then we get older and learn that love as depicted in songs is just an emotion that comes and goes. Real love is something that requires daily effort. It's something we do, not something we feel.

Thank you! It's vital to find a balance between loving 'the old things' we used to love and making space for new :)
