Perhaps Love
无意之中在CCTV-6看到的,并错过了开头,其实不算真正看过。
打开电视的时候,是Nicolas Cage向Meg Ryan表白,说他如何在接某人升天的时候看到她并爱上她。基于好莱坞的套路,很容易猜到这是一个为了爱情放弃永生的故事。之后有非常美丽的画面和催人泪下的结局,可是我一直有些心不在焉。
我的脑子里不知为何一直流动的都是那一首Perhaps Love
Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home
Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don`t know what to do
The memory of love will see you through
Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don`t know
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it`s cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
爱情是什么?世界日新月异光怪陆离,现实里的人们,无论是否曾经做过纯情少年,似乎都已经习惯了分离、背叛,欺骗和遗忘。所以我们忍不住想,或许生物学家关于的爱情解释最正确,那不过是某一段时间存在的某一种化学物质,或多或少,或长或短,但一定与神圣无关,一切的风花雪月不过是幻觉。
可是为什么文艺作品还是不松手 - 每一本书每一部电影都不愿放过。那样彪悍的美国人滥情的好莱坞时时刻刻不忘宣告:love is evething。他说,为了她感受发间的清香为了她柔软的双手,为了真实的彼此依靠,哪怕不过一夜,他绝无后悔从天使之城坠入将要腐烂的凡尘。这让我很惶惑,是应该鄙视他虚伪还是反省自己薄情。
在过去的一周,有幸见到很多故人,回忆恰同学少年事,也说今时今日。有人离异有人淡淡庆祝结发10周年都让人面不改色,也不过说到年少情怀才有些黯然神伤。
可是,过一天,竟听到有当年的同学相约去殉了情。在如此自由的新年代,因为什么样的无奈的感情,要放弃生命,我们猜不懂。
于是还是惶惑:爱情还在不在,爱情它是什么。
