show me when it rains, the place you go to hide

Listening to Emiliana Torrini is kind of painful. Not because she isn't good, because she's amazing. But when I first discovered her and became a little obsessed with her music, was two years ago. This was when I was leaving a friendship that had meant the world to me.

It's really strange to think that it's been about two years since I stopped being friends with this person. You know how you think you have a person that you couldn't possibly live without? Well, I did. After that friendship came to a painful end (that was dragged out for way too long), I ended another friendship with someone else that I thought that I couldn't live without. And I felt numb.

The latter friend and I are friends again, but it made me realize that... no one's irreplaceable. Except when I listen to Emiliana Torrini and I remember the sadness and then I think that it might be impossible to forget about some people, to feel completely numb about them.

Makes me feel like I shouldn't be listening to this. But the hell, it's good music.
