September 29. 2008

it was inevitable

Current mood:breezy

Change is in the air. Its subtle but sweet, quiet & calculating. I have no doubt in my mind things will be ok. Im making a list, checking it twice, & "washing my hair" everyday. I'll post the list soon enough and I wont stray or lower my standards. I know who I am & what I want now. It was sudden & unexpected but its clear to me now.

if you just change the hims to hers

I got to tell you that he waited all his life
For someone like you to come make the wrong things right
I know he didn't have the answers all the time
But you can't tell me that you've never told a lie

We're almost twenty-three and you're still mad at me
So much that I said to you and I want to take it back now
Twenty-three and it's so sad to me
You tell the world I'm dead to you
But I know you want me back now

Was it fun for you to watch him fall apart? (Watch me fall)
And suffocate him while you held him in your arms (in your arms)
I swear to God I wish he never let you in (let you in)
And I just hope we never hear from you again

We're almost twenty-three and you're still mad at me
So much that I said to you and I want to take it back now
Twenty-three and it's so sad to me
you tell the world I'm dead to you
But I know you want me back

Wasted on you (wasted on you)
Wasted on you (so much time I've)
Wasted on you (wasted on you)
Wasted on you
On you
On you

Twenty-three and you're still mad at me
So much that I said to you and I want to take it back now
Twenty-three and it's so sad to me
You tell the world I'm dead to you
But I know you want me back now

its a start

ok so Im writing again b/c I need to say this. I dont think I deserve to succeed or get the man of my dreams so its hard for me to say the things I want b/c why should I get them right? I need to keep reminding myself that I do deserve it.

The pieces of my life will come together. I will pay off my debt, I will go back to school, I will be the rider I want to become. I will not be alone in my life.

He will be tall and handsome
intelligent, funny, and compassionate
has an education and drive
easy to talk to & to get along with
knows what he wants in his life and is ok if it means hes not rich as long as he loves what hes doing
financially stable and responsible
he will be able to argue with me and not back down just because
he will respect family & the importance of it
he will be protective and loving, maybe even a little jealous at times
he wont be afraid to take my hand in public
he will hold the door for me & ask me how my day was
and he will think I am the most beautiful girl in the whole world & love me & my quirks, my goofiness, my trust issues, my bleeding heart, my loud laugh, my scars...and all those things that make me who I am

oh yes, he will understand that I dont share dessert ;)

I promise myself

Current mood:blessed

To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet.
To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best
and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of
others as I am about my own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and presson to the
greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile
to every living creature I meet.
To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to critize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world,
not in loud word, but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.

~Christian D. Larson, from "The Secret"

Current mood:apathetic

I closed our book today
with a force I cannot describe
a might that was unfathomable
and more tears then I knew could survive.

I tried to lock the pages
and throw away the key;
covered in rust and insubstantial
it crumbled at my feet.

You may fool the world
with your convoluted smile,
never again will I fall for the mist
that blinded my callow blue eyes.

where did my inner strength go?

Current mood:ashamed

I've really got no where else to go. I've hit rock bottom and honestly, I dont care. I know Im there, its just that now my family knows it too. I feel dead inside, like nothing really matters all that much. And when I dont feel dead, I feel broken and sad. Its as if Im just going through the motions right now. What else am I supposed to do? I let him drag me down this far, I could have stopped it. Instead I chose to trust him and hope that he could lead me right and then fought him along the way. Its easy to blame him, but its not all his fault. I just wanted someone to take care of me so I didnt have to be responsible myself. I continue to have dreams about him and they make me hurt even worse. Ive got to find a way to change this, find a way out of this hole. But I continue to turn inward and allow it to fester. I think Im doing ok and then it hits me like a brick wall. The things I thought were going right all seem to fall apart at the seams just when I stop expecting them to. And I feel like Im just whining, like I should be over it by now. That others think Im enjoying this self pity and Im choosing to stay in the sad. It took me almost 24 yrs to find someone to really love and to give my soul to only to have him rip right out of my life without any warning. I dont love easily and I love hard when I do. So isnt it expected that it might take me this long to heal, to let go? I turned my self abuse from food to spending money and not paying bills. Im about to lose my car in a month with really nothing to fall back on. Russia is the only thing I own and he drains me dry. But selling him isnt any kind of answer, it could take just as long to sell him as it would to find another solution. And frankly, other than my cats, hes the only thing I have to to look forward to in the day. I've fallen apart completely and I have no idea how to pick up my pieces anymore.

recovering

I discovered I still have access to my blogs that I wrote when myspace was a trend, so I will be transposing them onto this blog...so while they aren't new, they are ones that I find important enough to share again...

JULY 27, 2009 feeling cynical


Its been almost a year since you shattered my heart.
I just got rid of the last of your things,
its taken me long enough.

I didn't think I would survive.
Not because of you leaving,
but because I couldnt find all the pieces of my heart.

Those pieces got lost when we were together
when I least expected it.
It's taken too long to find
and Im not sure I have.
Im trying to learn all those lessons,
the ones I should have learned before
but instead I was trying to fix you,
fix us.
I'm not a contractor by any means.

Is she all you wanted? all that I couldnt be?
Does she share your dreamer attitude?
Does she support your failures?

Do you ever think about me?
Do you still feel guilty about what you did?

You took four years of my life
and left me in shambles
Im still recovering and Im not sure I ever will.
