ABBA World Disillusion

From the wall and from the screen ABBA radiate just like the perfect icon of everlasting happiness... shining on my teenage world... and love goes Bang-A-Boomerang... I took it for granted... and took it all in... I learnt the lyrics... I sang their songs... everytime they issued a new album all the fan friends would come round and we would listen to it for hours and comment on every track... till we realised we loved it better than the others... only because it was the latest... and so had to be their best...

Alice -who had been to Happy Hawaii- left work for good to return for a drink with her former colleagues... to find them changed... they had no time for her only for the drink and ckes she'd brought them... she left them after trying to make conversation a few wasted times... to feel but sad and disconcerted... she was no longer part of their world and realised they were no longer part of hers...

Disilusion had stepped in and set in... 

My world fell apart after turning every stone and taking the walls down... we all move and shake and scatter about the world... and lose touch... this world of love move on to a world of lone... ABBA first divorced then disbanded... and I heard in an interview that they never meet nowadays... just like that... just like the rest and the best of us... we still listen to ABBA on our own in our own corner... visions of happiness have worn thin... and whatever happiness we enjoy is too often selfish and we take selfies to prove it...
