Respect

It’s been a while, my you’ve grown
I’m still the same size as last you saw me. If anything I’m smaller
A shake of the head to imply that understanding cannot be imparted and the moment moves on.

It starts with talking, something normal, and something equal
It starts with a glance, sizing up, seeing the change
Knowing not the hidden thoughts of the other things remain at that point and the moment moves on.

I was sixteen
It’s been… Wow
A brief hug and a deep smile; hints of the past pass through and the moment moves on.

Out into the world, looking to discover sweets
Discovery of a need, but 8 things block the way
The number is argued but in joviality and another encounter with the past, though to stick with pattern the moment moves on.

Back inside speaking slowly
Speaking softly, pictures shown and hunger passes
Beginning the activity the process is begun and after a time, that too passes when the moment moves on.

Following food dishes are done without the request bringing much surprise.
Following on with the subtle presses outward flirting is ensued
Knowing not the hidden thoughts of the other, but seeing more, the moment moves on.

Hand at the knee
Sitting in the soft, it has been decided and without much it happens

Sudden warmth, not once but twice and the effect it has is not like another, sadly the moment moves on.



Happy but frustrated
Unable to execute the usual games from the sensations
For once being carried along, happy and content, things are just as they were at parting, only more maturely understood even though the moment moves on.

Knowing of the weak points, nothing changes
Respect is passed and it settles down into laying and watching

So much warmth it is hard to let go, but for safety and promises it is left and the moment moves on.

Methodical: One Night Stand

It started with a pain, something common, but sore. It started with a need, something natural, but misplaced. It came to pass with a phone call, something unusual, but expected. It came to pass at 11 at night, something exciting, but uncalled for. It ended with an embrace, something longed for, but mislaid. It ended with a connection, something had, but bigger.

Sway left, sway right; gentle tides make heads light.
Move slow, move calm; prickling shocks move into my palm.
Sitting close, sitting warm; my crying relieves all old harm.
Momentum steady, momentum projected; the inching closer is expected.


Tug at my heartstrings I lean forward and give your fantasies a run. Taking selfishly for reasons other than your own both gain something they have needed, however the repercussions are yet to be found. Being on the other end before, sorrow takes me as I think of your role, however grateful I am at the pain you helped me expel.


The fears that I am absolutely alone are removed as you take me in your arms; you personally push my doubt away at the pain I will cause you when you truly recognize that this was my “One Night Stand”

Warmth presses on the tender skin of my lips and arms are pulled tight around me. Swaying to a beat only you can hear the methodical moment is about to begin. Understandings already imparted I let the part of me that needed this comfort take it and assess it itself without my minds help. Starting small the methodic pulse increases and my mind finally quiets letting my soul have its chance.

Taking all, following a call.
Gentle dance, fixes broken chance.
Simple hope, allows to cope.

Short nap finishes the moment and I disappear into the night. Back to responsibilities, back to reality. The moment lasts till morning when the truth of what I have done is brought back to mind. You want more than I can give; I need everything you want to give. However, it cannot be received and it is a chaos I will not tread into. You cannot understand but you help all you can. The act I finished, and the ecstasy in kisses will not ever be reached again.

Me and my “One Night Stands”

Living Death

A Prompt in English Class; "Before and After"


A constant sound, loud thud, gentle ricochet, soft whoosh, little reverberation.

A constant motion, strong pressure, steady flow, reversed motion, pulling in.

A constant pulse, sharp spike, spreading foreword, directional current, fading out.

SILENCE

A constant echo, memories shutter, forever frozen, lost grip, broken hope.

A constant stillness, missing beat, developed pain, never moving, now halted.

A constant lack, sudden jolt, empty chambers, rigger found, deadly silent.

A Rant, Just me talking on the computer is all...

The ach in my hands is as great as it has been since the cortisone shots, but it is so overwhelmingly diminished by the pain in my heart. The childishness of my situation is disgraceful. Why did I memorize his face? Why did I take such meticulous care to learn exactly how every muscle moved to create every emotion I have seen him carry? Why did I take the effort to learn every single way of detecting what emotion I could wring out of him, even if he didn’t want me to be aware of it, sitting in the car or wherever we were. Why is it that my heart has found a hold so great in this one that it can’t be shaken, that it draws me further and further into remorse at the fact that he is happy. Like a drug, the more I got the more I needed. I have never felt this much hurt radiating from the fact of a specific person, let alone feel this way when I feel such pride for him. I mean, seriously the joy in his voice when he imparted upon me his new relationship status with the girl he’s been striving to be worthy of. To know I was the first to be told. To know that I hold a part of him and he willingly gave it to me because he didn’t want me hurt. To know all of these things, to be called Beautiful and to be told that if someone denies that fact that they are not worth my time and I will be happy. He knows I will be happy. How is it that with all of this there is an undercutting darkness that makes every moment bleak if I forget to shut it in? My Sunbeams, the six little rays of light in my week, little 3 and 4 year olds at church; I was happy this morning, watching them, knowing that even while they were misbehaving there was such a pure innocence in them. I was reading yesterday night, with a 2 year old lying atop me, pointing at the colors on the poke-dotted pillow calling out their names with a tired but anxious voice. Looking at me for assurance every time. That’s the only pure joy I can feel anymore. It is the only time that the name does not hurt, that the memories are kept at bay. You would think with all of my distress that this was more than just a friendship that I have had since October of last year. That’s the moment it clicked, the moment I knew that I needed to get in as much time as possible with the kid. I’ve never felt that compulsion before. I have never felt that pure need to maintain a friendship and learn as much as I could as fast as I could. I would be lying if I said that I didn’t know he wouldn’t be around forever. My heart knew it the moment I he touched my leg to show me the placement of a muscle. It tears me to pieces that I can remember the touch, the angles, and the sheer magnitude of his presence. I do him no justice when I say that he has a charisma that entices me every time he so much as enters a room. Example I was in the hall waiting for class people going in and out and I hear footsteps. Immediately without a doubt I looked up thinking ‘that sounds like Him but it’s not because he is still at the library.’ I was wrong. It was him. I took no notice of anyone else; I looked up occasionally as a few people entered and exited, but more for relief to my brain from studying, not because I thought it was him. THE SOUND OF THE FOOTSTEPS! Alas, as I have decided from having small sections of my broken soul handed to me from close friends, I deserve better than second, I deserve to wait. I know this with what’s left of my heart. However, my mind won’t shut up. I am purposefully seeking out distractions, going so far as to put myself in harm’s way, which for me and the examples is huge; most people would look at me and laugh. However, my close friends who know me would shake their head in defeat, one of which I am sure will read this. The others, I’m good enough at hiding this from and they don’t even know. AHH! I can hear his voice in my head. NO! I am NOT Beautiful! I am twisted and distorted, dark, ominous thoughts encompass my very being when I am left alone. I use my friends, all of them, they are my crutch, and I use their conversations as vantage points in developing the complex workings of my outer appearances. I lied on the phone the other day. Yes I am coping, no I am not fine. No I am not dealing. I knew from the very moment I brought him home that I wouldn’t have him to keep and I tried desperately to put him away, I tried with a passion to not let him know how I feel, I tried to make him think I was never going to be anything more than a friend. Because I won’t, I can’t. It is impossible. I have not the capabilities for it. I am sorry. I am terribly sorry. I should have listened, accepted the first fight with myself and let it drop. I should have lost my hold when I understood and would escape safe.

SAVE ME!

That’s my plea, however I will not call it to you, for it would destroy me to take what you want from you. Stupid fears, stupid feelings, stupid me. Everyone leaves me, in one way or another. Every friend I have has disappeared and with his flight down to see her I have officially lost every hold on people near me. Many of them left from my own will, others left unknowing that I believe that it happened, I see pain in one’s eyes, I haven’t touched another in over two years, the mental connection is strong, but it’s not what I need, it’s just enough to keep me alive. Thank you dearly. Others are gone or I have changed while they were away just enough for them to not recognize my insides anymore enough to call me out. I know I am being watched over, but I can’t seem to go towards the warmth of the becoming. I keep piling things against me. Even when I don’t something happens. Like today I was all happiness and sunshine after church, bringing joy to others is where I find mine, and I can only bring the pure kind to the children, they are my safeguard against complete and total destruction. Anyways, when I got home I was fine… then whoosh boom, exhaustion and the need to sleep and never wake, so I read to pass the time, a couple hundred pages from one o’clock to 9 and I am still not quenched. I go to stand and I get this overwhelming sense of agony and a memory of an occurrence while I was reading “Ivy, I think mom misses Him more than you do, she just made a comment about it and sighed” I smile weakly and say, over my book and from the tangle of blankets on my floor, “I doubt that but she can think so” and the echo of my own voice in my head feels like a needle to a balloon tight with the pressure of the air within it. CANT I JUST PICK ONE OF THE EMOTIONS I FEEL????? I just want to feel the happiness for him. I don’t blame Him for my sadness, it’s my own situation that has me in such remorse, and he’s just the poor victim that caused the onslaught. He was a friend, he is a friend. Our relationship hasn’t changed, as far as I am aware, but to have the pure knowledge that his face moves in this delicate way, and the impossible lightness he gets when she calls and how everything is dropped to make sure she has what she needs is the most… most, Beautifully cryptic thing in my life. I would lie if I said that I didn’t know this would happen. I would lie if I said it wasn’t worth it. I would have lied if I said that I think this is the most ridiculous thing in yet to occur to me. I would lie if I said I did not wish I was her. I would lie if I said that I won’t fall into the next arms that so much as marginally open to me even if I know without a doubt that I am putting myself in yet another dangerous situation such as my first boyfriend. I would lie if I said I don’t welcome that pure adultery to my soul as punishment for this nonexistent plague I feel I have given myself.
I would lie if I said that I would take my own life, however it would also be a lie if I said I wouldn’t welcome it if it came on its own.

Yes Yy, I wish I was a Lemming.

The Life of a Soul

There is nothing in existence and existence has nothing.
Suddenly there is awareness.

A soul, a single soul that is but a pin point of light that can only be seen if some the angle is just so.

The light is The Awareness and just below it a fraction, is a grotesque sensation of contortion.

It is twisted and distraught.

Other awareness's come and go but This Particular shuns away.

All of the awareness's are small dim lights, however the Single One takes the contortion with it, and falls behind in greater dimness, believing that It is even less of a light.

It holds Its own light in, from fear of it dissipating or even having it mercilessly taken away.

However, so much energy is used in self preservation that It is weakening Itself in the process, helping the light to grow dreadfully dim.

There is a great and wonderous light that has the ability of transposing part of itself over to the small awareness's if they but come close enough to gather it and recharge form it.

The Single Awareness stands back, waiting to gather courage to come close to the blinding countenance of the large giver.

However, energy is constantly being used.
Bits and pieces are exposed and removed.

Twisting feeling seems to overtake most all of the Awareness.
The realization is formed that this twist as overwhelming as it is, is because to dim the light is against natural forces.
The light, in consiquence, grow smaller and smaller from lack of fule to keep it bright.

The only true need is one to release the light and move on, but the perverse sensation that is Its accompaniment is so expected, to have it missing makes The Light feel empty, unnatural and unwilling to stick it out.
There are kinks orrigating below the light which spread around it.
Encapsulated and alone, It believes It is as a light should be.

Wanting other awareness's to have joy because it is a comfort to see their lights radiating so warm, The Awareness holds back form fear of disrupting its only known comfort.

The Small Diverging Awareness knows what its light needs but has become frozen in panic and has forgotten, or rather never learned to react acceptable.

Very clumsily It will react to what it truly wants, but it does it in a manner that It sets itself up for the negative.
Because of its expectations of the other lights to want another, that is what occurs because It never allows itself to actually be seen.

Moving just right the light occasionally peeks through the cracks in the kinks caused by the distortion, but not enough to captivate and draw another near enough to want to hold the light and keep it.

There are a choice few that will lead It to the giving awareness, however, while it is important for this to occur, The Awareness is too shy to understand the actual importance of this.

The Awareness is scared that once the light is let go from within, It will not give off what It has been told that It holds within.

Never seeing It for The Lights' Self makes It believe not in that the light others see through the miniscule fissures can even exist at all.

If it was there to let go would be the greatest experience and would set The Awareness up for success, especially in the things It wishes upon others.

However, finalizing that there is no such light, or it is less than it should be is a worse scenario than staying in the current damned state.

Finally relenting and allowing to be pushed forward, The Gentle Awareness slowly becomes attentive to the damn that has been built and is in the mind of tearing it down.

The quality of light still terrifies It.

Having so many extra bright lights help on the path, for whatever reason, The Existance longs for that impact but knows not how to properly obtain it with the contortion still hovering about.

The Alone Dot wants to protect the other lights and help them, but there is only so much It can do when to be near them makes The Awareness realize how inadequate It really is.

The relations with these few is so vastly important that The Awareness does not wish to relinquish any hold on the awareness's for fear of losing its only connection with Its Own Self.

However, It still manages to quietly let them go into the proactive, more developed, sphere of light from another, while staying alone Itself rather than hinder them by being selfish.
Loosing its ability to truly strive to Its greatest capacity to keep those It holds to high esteem near.
This Incy Lost Beacon causes Itself pain on an almost regular basis.

The Awareness' hopes it will gain enough strength to eventually show enough light to have one of the many greater lights recognize it and care back as much as it cares for.

However It is growing so weak It is nolonger sure that when another light comes around will have the capasity to change its habits and only draw it near rather than also push it aside simultaneously, there in preventing another inevitable failure.



There is the incontestable hope that to open up and search out while changing habits are not in vain.
