Melmel137 - At Least I'm Trying |

Also, I remember Taylor saying that This Love started as a poem that she had written about somethimg that happened in her life a year before 1989 dropped.

I can't imagine what happened! 😭🥺

Of course it was a poem l—and yes... my emisue heart melts with this video. I'm crying with you friend.

Yeah, according to the lover diaries she wrote This Love in October of 2012. These lyrics hit a certain nerve for me…

why is this coming out now?

I don’t know. I assume it is from early December when they were in New Orleans. Any reason to believe he is in New Orleans right now?

Please be vigilant about your vote, especially so in battleground states like Florida and Georgia with Republican governors who have explicitly shown that they have no compunction about suppressing the vote.

Im confused if Daylight is a Swiftgron or Kaylor song? I once believed love would be (Black and white) But it's golden (Golden) And I can still see it all (In my head) Back and forth from New York (Sneaking in your bed) I once believed love would be (Burning red) But it's golden Like daylight, like daylight Like daylight, daylight This verse threw me off. New york, Gold... once believed love was burning red?

Hello. ❤️

My main interpretation of Daylight most days is that golden love is not primarily about connecting it to this or that person, but to the experience of a feeling and how we approach relationships as an adult after a number of experiences. A lot of it is about how we cope with things in life (not just romance) not being our idealistic experience. It’s more about love that isn’t just black and white—cut and dry—or burning red—intense and passionate—but golden like daylight—visible light is all colors of the spectrum. It’s taking the good with the bad, the simple with the complex, the entire rainbow of experiences and of emotion of life and letting go of the idea of some kind of fairytale life.

With that said, in terms of how I think the alleged relationships play into it: I’ve familiarized myself with the timeline of events and done my own research and have drawn my own conclusions over the last year. I believe based on what we can observe and deduce that Kaylor were rocky in 2016 and didn’t last in a substantial way past that for a variety of reasons.

There have also been lots of noteworthy and interesting things that appear to have been happening in Swiftgron social media coordinations and shenanigans since 2016. It seems like Dianna and Taylor reconciled, have been in contact and civil to varying degrees since around then.

Gaylors all have their own ideas of how they interpret the way events and songs have unfolded. I understand why Kaylors don’t want to see things this way. I don’t think Swiftgron are currently together or even that they have been in a committed relationship, but in light of folklore, it’s pretty obvious to me and those in the Swiftgron corner that Taylor considers Dianna her muse. That’s the only way folklore makes sense as autobiographical. With folklore, it’s clear Taylor has had a lot of feelings to work out about their alleged 2011-2013 relationship and whatever supposed cycles they’ve been through in and out of each other’s lives post-2016.

So with my stance in all that clarified, with Taylor’s art in mind, with Taylor saying she didn’t write after 1989, with my timelines and series of events in mind, with folklore completely upending whatever space I made for Kaylor in the rep/Lover equation before it came out...I’m feeling a lot less inclined now since the release of folklore to say “take them both into consideration” for rep/Lover. I’m still untangling my brain in light of the new album and trying to go back to rep and Lover, but at this point I wouldn’t attribute many songs to being even partially Kaylor-inspired off the top of my head. If you or others are not comfortable with that, I get it. It’s just what makes the most sense to me now with this how things have added up to this album.

Listen to folklore. Listen to Taylor. Look at the art. Look at the Easter eggs. Read my mini Series of Events posts. Ask yourself how that would all line up so well with Taylor’s art if Dianna wasn’t supposed to be taken seriously as “her muse” in 2020, and if absolutely nothing of significance has been going on with them these last few years.

I wouldn’t say anymore that New York or gold references are symbols of a Kaylor song, although I was willing to buy into that idea more before folklore.

Even my visible narrative-believing self of last summer/fall could see Taylor connecting Lover to Red and Dianna. Even I took note of the etymological connection of The Archer to what I didn’t even fully accept was a real relationship last summer in the overwhelming wave of Kaylor and Jaylor.

Dianna herself publicly appeared just weeks after the album release (for what I like to call Invisible String Day lol) in New York for a performance of False God (a song referencing New York) and Lover.

Taylor’s the one that wore a red rose on her shirt for the rep scene in the Lover music video, a symbol that we now know adds up to connecting to the lakes lyric a red rose grew up out of frozen ground and her disappearance in 2016 and Cornelia Street and MAATHP, which is making sense to all be about Dianna for me now.

Taylor’s the one that made the main focus of the snowglobe Lover video the Red room last summer, which features gold details.

Taylor’s the one that confirmed that the seahorse patch on the Red room jacket is because they mate for life.

Taylor’s the one that put the heart “you’re my person” patch on the Red room jacket.

Taylor’s the one that said “it’s been a happy, free, confused, sometimes lonely but mostly golden decade” which is a modified phrase from the liner booklet where Dianna’s name appears in 22.

And now Taylor has connected folklore to Red and “sad, beautiful, tragic” “lost love” with William Bowery co-writes that easily connect to Dianna as James.

And Taylor’s the one that said I’m setting off, but not without my muse to close the album.

And Dianna in Latin means “daylight”.

A string that pulled me out of all the wrong arms, right into that dive bar. Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire. Chains around my demons, wool to brave the seasons. One single thread of gold tied me to you.

If you look at what Taylor has done with her art and the hints she’s been giving, it all just adds up to being Dianna.

Let me start by saying that I’ve loved all of Taylor’s previous albums. They’re magical and fantastic, each in their own way. They each represent a phase/era in her life. I love that. But you know what I love even more? This album feels like such a natural evolution. This album wasn’t focused on singles and touring. It was made purely for the craft of it. This album seems so much more intimate and personal than anything we’ve ever had from her before. This album is full of reminiscing, which is something I’ve really started to do now that I’m older. As soon as I heard this album and the vibe each song has and the lyrics (THE LYRICS!!!), it just hit me right in the feels. This album is MY album. It’s the one I connect to the most. It’s the album that makes me feel so many emotions from start to finish. This album is helping me process my own childhood, difficult feelings from past relationships, and an array of feelings I’ve had when reminiscing on fading memories. Music can mean so many things to lots of people. Music has this stunningly beautiful magic of helping us escape, process or enjoy various periods in our life and the emotions that come with them. All of her albums have helped me in some way. But Folklore is the album that is helping me process the difficult emotions I’ve encountered in my life. This album is my therapy. Folklore will always be my favorite thing she’s ever done. I am so insanely proud of Taylor for writing this album.
