I swore I wouldn’t cry today. I don’t know why I make a vow I break every year.
John Winston Ono Lennon
October 9, 1940 – December 8, 1980
John Riley Morris
March 8, 1955 – January 16, 2008
Riley would have cried with me today, so I’ll just cry for both of them.
I feel sorrow, oh I feel dreams
Everything is clear in my heart
I feel life, oh I feel love
Everything is clear in our world
ETA in 2022: This song is astonishing, really.
Way too young.
It blows my mind that John Lennon has now been dead as long as he was alive. He was robbed, the world was robbed, his family was robbed. Because of a mentally unstable person with a gun.
It happens a lot. It shouldn’t, but it does.
