My Gradual Descent

Rilo Kiley has this song called “A Man/Me/Then Jim”, and the Chorus goes, “It’s just the slow fade of love/And its dark mist will choke you/It’s my gradual descent into a life I never meant/It’s the slow fade of love.”

For about the last year, every time I heard that song I cried. Every single time. I was just listening to my Rilo Kiley CD, and when that song came on…I smiled. I cannot even begin to tell you how relieved I am by this.
