昨年末の記事(2022.12.30)にて、「2023年は世界が少しでも良い方向へ向かう年になりますように」と書いたが、その願いは叶わなかった。
巨視的に見れば人類の歴史は良き方向へ進んでいる、という考えをベースとして「弁証法」というロジックも成り立つのだろうが、僕は自分のボキャブラリーから「弁証法」を外した。「〇〇の高次復活」などと言うのは理屈の遊戯以上ではない。
「諸行無常」という語がしっくりと身に沁みてよくわかる。
「諸行無常」は諦めではない。
「諸行無常」は熱い。

Wait
Your tired arms must rest
Let this moment pass
Wait until the morning
Close your eyes and let me see
who you used to be
Left without a warning
Who knew one so big could grow so small?
Lighter than the writing on the wall
When angels cry, can I stand by?
When stones weep, can my heart sleep?
Wish I'd never heard, wish I'd never heard
Wish I'd never heard
The power of a four letter word
'Cause only love will matter in the end
For woman or for man
What's the difference now?
Here, we live with bottles
and needles and truth
Here is your living proof
that death cannot be proud
Some say it's a judgment on us all
I can't believe that God would be that small
When angels cry, can I stand by?
When stones weep, can my heart sleep?
Wish I'd never heard, wish I'd never heard
Wish I'd never heard
The power of a four letter word
If ever was a soul that longed to fly
If ever was a heart that longed to bloom
If ever was an angel, it was you
So close your eyes and say goodbye
Goodbye
When angels cry, I can't stand by
When stones weep, my heart can't sleep
Guess I've finally learned
Guess I've finally learned
Yes, I've finally learned
LOVE is just a four letter word
HOPE is just a four letter word
