let me kiss you?

super excited that i've got tickets to see Morrissey in York.
Thanks for the tip off.
Or else i'd be hung high and dry.
i like to reflect on what music has done for me.
and The Smiths and Morrissey are no exception.
sometimes i feel blessed to be a Manchester girl
so i can refer to bands like the smiths and call them my boys, from my city.
i may have moved postcodes
but my heart will always be m46
certain songs take me back to the very moment i heard them,
what point in my life i was at, who i was dating, how i was feeling.
i'm driving your girlfriend home, she's laughing to stop herself crying.
powerful, yet poetic words.
how did i end up attached to this person?
i can't tell her.
Morrissey has been a solo artist for as long as i've been alive, 23 long years.
i was born in the wrong era, for sure.
