State of the Heart

Deeper than the Pacific. Carefree you frolic, within. Unaware of the intense pressure you dispense upon my soul. Plunging, and diving, stretching far beyond its seemingly non-existent limits.

Where there is no boundary, you find... On a verge, that never was, you stand. Testing my patience... Conspicuously measuring my love.

I see clearly how selfish you've become BUT like a fool... your fool, I'm ignorant to it's consequences.

I fell victim to your trap. Charmed by the lullabies after lies, you'd soothe. Knocked entirely from the realization that I've spent years avoiding ANYONE like you.

You push... I pull. And vice versa until we're found in this full blown "tangling-tango". A dance that leaves me dizzy, stumbling, desperate to grasp the knob of any door. A jig, I can't stand; but one you seem to have mastered. Because at the first sign of my desire to bow out, gracefully... you squeeze my hand tighter, pull me closer and continue to lead us in this endless sway.

Begrudgingly, I go through the motions of this mystifying situation. I do, but I don't. And I always will, so I won't--end this crazy charade. Under a spell you've cast, I haven't the strength to lift. Suffocating beneath an, otherwise, avertable state. A state that is not sound of mind, but one that is utterly absent of logic. A state of stupidity... A state of irrationality...  A state of the heart.

What Now?!?!

Let's just begin. What the fuck?! What the ACTUAL FUCK?!??! <~~~ That has literally been the question on my mind for weeks now. *overstated, confused shrug* WTF?! My soul just seems like a punching bag at this point. My heart hurts, fatally! I feel like I can never begin to help you understand just what I go through/feel on a regular basis. I can say, please revert back to previous posts like, "My Burning Desire" and "The Frustration Mounts" ... but there are many frustrations that deal nothing with my illness... at least not completely.  My crippling fear of failure was here long before Lyme. I am afraid of fucking up, even in the slightest. I wear my pride on my sleeve, and if I try something and completely screw it up... Ohhhh , it'd be a loooonnnnnggg time before I tried that shit again!!!! That's why I'm afraid to commit... to anything!!! People, hobbies, hair lengths!!! I'm a mess and I've been a mess. I'm crazy....

Soft Tissue

The way I love Has Yet to be reciprocated.  My love language? A dialect no one speaks. My head's underwater. No snorkels allowed. I wade in a sea of  My own ill-gotten tears.  The pain? Seemingly beyond my threshold. Yet, I still love the way I  love. I refuse to let my heart harden. For there are few things in this life Stronger than a docile heart.  A heart that loves so easily. Yet begs itself, Pleads with itself, Blood curdling cries Highlighting the desire to take That love BACK for itself.  For it's beauty has been worn. The substance of it laced with hurt. It's unfair! But it SO can be repaired.  It's pliability makes it malleable. Giving, The Potter, free reign  To breathe life into me, While my wounded heart lay in repair. Spinning the clay-like organ As I journey along Protected.   On a divine ventilator, Waiting. The vitality of my vessel spins Between the loving hands of, The Truth. Every indentation, Every impression, Made lov...

31... A Birthday Story

Heyyy!!! My good golly it's been a while since I passed through here. The Lyme induced dyslexia has been at bay for a while now so I figured I say hi. I've missed you guys!!! Since I last posted, MY GAWD , have things in my life changed?!-- Today I turn 31 years old and my mind simply cannot conceive it! I'm blessed. Who knew this day would come other than God?? 'Cause I for sure damn didn't. *shrugs* (I know we can use emojis now but the asterisk life just feels right today. lol) I dunno if you can sense it yet but I come to you all today drentched in so much joy! Sincerely. And it feels kinda scary to say outloud. B/c every other time I THOUGHT I was headed in the right direction in life, Life's, petty ass would snatch me RIGHT back with the quickness. It was a nevering ending cycle. To the point that I was left with so much egg on my face, I was afraid of speaking positively over my own life. Scared of getting my feelings hurt once again due to ...
