He Turns Me On, But Doesn't Touch Me

"If John were a homosexual, I would've thought he would have made a pass at me in 20 years, wouldn't you?" - Paul McCartney disputing the claims that Lennon had homosexual affairs, 1988.

~

Scenes and slices of life in which John desperately tried to hide himself when confronted with these ideas. The ideas that must never be known to his best friend, his life support, his rival, his brother, his partner. Because if John ever let Paul understand the sort of power he had over him, he'd lose everything that ever really mattered. That's his worst fear, and he goes to terrible lengths attempting to ensure it's never realized.

... But maybe, in the end, John can learn to let it go. Even if that means a life without the person who used to mean everything.
