i flip back and forth.
between feeling numb,
and feeling everything.
i wanna be happy.
and sometimes, for a moment,
i am.
but it..never sticks.


"you cant stop me
from fallin apart,
cuz my self-destruction is
all.your.fault."


life has been soo..
hard. 
especially lately.
especially since..
since summer ended.
and it only got harder
come october..
and from there?
things flip.
between getting worse
and seeming better.


"Im not giving up
givin in
when will this war end??"


no. i wont give up.
ever.
but the question still screams
when will it stop?
will i ever see the day
where i DONT have to fight
just to make it through?


"right now.."


i cry out to Him.
He comes.
i know He does.
i cant always feel it.
but ive known Him long enough
to know He comes.
but all my life..
ive known OF Him.
theres a huge difference between
knowing Him
and knowing OF Him.


I want to trust Him.
but i trust everyone.
and they always let me down.
and i dont have much left in me.
if i get let down again
i just dont know..
if i can pick myself up again.
so if i take a chance on Him
and He lets me down
like basically everyone else has..


"do you believe
that time heals all wounds?"


no. i honestly dont. 
there are some things that,
no matter how long its been,
will still hurt.
time isnt a miracle worker.
time doesnt really CHANGE anything
it simply makes memories 
fade a little.
and lets wounds become scars.
but i dont believe time HEALS.


"I cant believe it 
still hurts like this."


but it does.


"we'd listen to the radio 
play all night,
didnt wanna go home
to another fight,
through all the hard times
in my life,
those nights kept me alive..
i remember when,
we used to drive
anywhere but here,
as long as we'd 
forget our lives.."


i do avoid the fights. 
i avoid conflict.
i avoid emotions 
and feeling things.
basically at all costs.
i didnt used to.
i used to handle things.
..
when they say you dont know 
what you have till its gone,
they dont lie.
i didnt know how much 
it meant to me to be
able to express myself
..until it was taken.
oh, i can still do it.
after all, i am right now.
but i do so recognizing
that there could be 
consequences.
honestly, if you didnt
go through it, you cant
understand.
you might think 
im being dramatic.
but when your privacy
is so far invaded that
it breaks OTHER people
and invades their privacy
..
you learn to watch what you do.



"theres nothin wrong with us..
those nights belong to us.."

no matter what ANYONE says.
no matter how much they have
messed this up in my head.
no matter what lies we've heard.
we know there is 
NOTHING.
WRONG.
WITH.
US.
in fact, in my opinion,
never has anything been 
more.right.
i think thats why theres a lot
of hate and..
controversy, if you will
about "us".
i know satan hates everything
about the two of us.
obviously.
and he will do ANYTHING
to try to see the death
of our friendship.
too much good has come
out of us for him to
do anything but wish 
for it to end.
but, try as ANYONE will,
we arent going anywhere.
"You cant tear apart
what God brought
together."
you said it yourself.
and youre right.

I know God has a plan
in alllll of this.
but its just so hard
to trust.
even Him.
THATS how far broken
i am.
unfortunate, sad..
but true.
i have to admit the truth
if i am every again gonna
come face to face with the Light.
im sick of standing in darkness.
but the cold truth is?
i think its..safer.
i was fine in the light
and i was vulnerable.
i was open.
and i got attacked.
well, no one dares venture
into my darkness.
but the truth?
i secretly hate it here.
i love the security it brings
..
but i hate the loneliness i feel.
constantly.

"I must confess
that i feel like
a MONSTER.
i hate what
ive become,
the nightmare's
just begun..
i, i, i feel
like a MONSTER..
theres no escape 
for me
it wants my soul
it wants my heart.."

December..

when i reached my breaking point, i finally handed everything over to God. i hate that it took me so long. but i suppose what counts is that i did it. i handed all my cares to God. i begged Him to intervene..and to do it quickly.
and?
HE DID!!
i went to bed last night LITERALLY feeling so much lighter.
He LITERALLY lifted my burdens from me.
<3

i let you in to let me down
its ok its just how things go
no one ever really sticks around
i should just learn how to breathe on my own

hes the reason i fall asleep with my phone in my hand.
shes the reason i believe there are people out there that care.

people can either be your reason to fly,
or your reason to fall apart.

i have some of both people in my life.
but the honest truth is..i think i have more people that make me fall apart, than i have people to build me back up.
i was sitting in church today, just having a real honest conversation with God.
i told Him i had reasons i couldnt give Him my whole life.
im not doing that great a job holding myself together these days. But i have my life by a thread. and im not letting go.
i told Him that. i told Him that to give it up to Him, to let go of the last thread im holding onto, to give Him me and to allow Him to break me if He so chooses...was something i couldnt do.
not again.
it was then that i realized WHY i felt like this.
and i told Him what i was feeling.
"people always break me when given the opportunity. but they never stick around to put me back together. if i let You break me..who is to say YOU'LL put me back together? i just cant afford to be broken and left one.more.time. because...if im broken and the one who breaks me walks away...i may not be able to put myself back together this time.."
i told you it was honest. and thats not verbatim but..you get the picture.
its all true though.
i really dont think i can keep putting myself back together.
no.one.on.earth. knows i feel like this. and yeah, i WANT to trust God. i really do. but i trust everyone and EVERYONE lets me down.
EVERYONE.
well....so far, of everyone ive ever known, ONE person is still trustworthy.
the point is, if you knew my track record, youd understand why my heart is so hesitant to let me trust anymore.

God help me. im too broken to cry out much more than that. just...rescue me, please. i KNOW, probably better than most, that i dont deserve this. that i dont deserve You..but i need You. please dont leave me. ever. <\3

"There is a new place, where dreams just cant come true, it started the day, that i left you.."

"I could never love again, the way i loved you
I could never cry again, like i did when i left you
...I could never love again, now that we're apart"

i really missed out on a great era. the 80s.
haha.
God, can i just say...i feel sooo stupid. like, seriously.
i wanna cry. i just burn inside. i wont let anyone see it, but im really upset. everything about him used to make me feel amazing. now everything about him makes me feel ashamed.
maybe this is a sign..?

Who do you think you are, runnin round leaving scars, collecting your jar of hearts, and tearing love apart..

i wish it would snow. im ready. im ready for this season to just change.
to be honest, im not really ready for the holidays.
to be honest, some days i wish i could just sleep right on thru...well..just a while.
because when im asleep...i dont have to deal with anything.
its not that im tired of living...
im just exhausted.
dont get me wrong, i love life and i wouldnt give it up..
i just need a break.
and 6 hours of being haunted by dreams and nightmares really just isnt cutting it anymore :/
i just dont think i can play games much longer.
im looking back at the last 2 months...how.far.ive.come.
and its not good.
much less the last YEAR..
in the course of 2011, ive gotten into relationships i shouldnt have, ended relationships i could have saved, hurt people, broke hearts, broke my OWN heart, gotten into relationship altering arguments with people i love and people that love me but the fights have SERIOUSLY put a strain on our relationship, fallen for yet ANOTHER player, had to relive and try to deal with last winter...
and thats just the beginning.
theres a few good things that came out of this year.
they are few and far between but, when they came, they were monumental  
...
all i can hope now, is that 2012 will be much better.
because ive just given up on trying to make 2011 good. come what may. i can tell, this was definitely NOT my year :P
"Leaving scars.." you know when you play a song, and its just like a mirror image of your life? yeah. "you broke all your promises, and now youre back, you dont get to get me back.."
"Dont come back for me, DONT COME BACK AT ALL.."
ughh you want to know the worst part?
even once 2011 is over...all of this stuff will come back to haunt me. ://
sometimes it just feels like im never gonna win. never gonna beat this life.
i feel like its taking over me.
oh! and i didnt even get to the absolute worst.part.
...i cant even feel God with me <\\3
i pray, i read my Bible..and He just feels sooo far.
ive never felt like this before.
never.
not even when i basically removed Him from my life for like a year... :'//
honestly i...i cry out and i beg Him to become real to me...
but my heart is numb. and worse, cold. my heart is like an icicle.
i dont feel God's warmth there at all.
and i dont blame Him. i know i did this.
last month...
i can trace it back.
seriously i wanna cry. i know what happened and im both horribly angry, and terribly sad and upset.
for SO long i worked to make myself open. to embrace my feelings. to be honest about what im feeling and going through. i didnt open up to just anyone, but there were always select people i was honest with. and moreover?
i was ALWAYS honest with myself.
but now? i write off feelings like they are nothing. i dont DARE. LET. MYSELF. FEEL. ANYTHING.
because my feelings, my tender, open heart...got attacked.
so i shut myself up, and i built walls, and i closed the doors and let no one in.
i even started doing that with the one person i swore to never do it with.
thankfully, we talked about it..and..its ok.
but as far as everyone else? and as far as the ones who took shots at me and my heart?
BIGGGG walls. BIG.
and somehow, i ended up shutting out God.
i never NEVER meant to do that.
but i dont know how to get Him back.
even though i KNOW its not true, i cant help but feel like i blew my only shot. just like a person, i shut Him out, and He's not coming back. well, i KNOW in my head that that isnt true.
but my heart...my hearts got nothing. its too icy and numb to know anything.
and thats where i need to know it the most..<\\\3

"I learned to live half alive, and now you want me one more time..."

wait...i just got over you...or anyways i was getting there...and NOW you come back?
maybe she's right. maybe im too blinded to see it so maybe i should take my best friends advice. maybe i see the best in you because thats what i want to see..but maybe she can see the truth in you. that youre no good for me. that youre only toying with me. that you hurt me once so, yeah..youll probably hurt me again.
maybe this is the truth about you.
but maybe, just maybe, there IS something to be said for a guy that keeps..coming back.
i mean, ive told you how.many.times. that youre not getting what you want physically from this relationship.
...
so WHY do you keep coming back?!
could it be, oh, could.it.be...that you actually CARE..about me? O.o
no. no i wont let myself believe that. bc its probably not true.
no, you probably just came back around bc you thought you could wear me down.
*sigh..
i shouldve never talked to you last night.
but, for all my talk, i sorta knew if you texted me..i would text back.
and i did.
i have to learn how to do this with you, how to talk to you, how to feel out the relationship..withOUT getting emotionally attached.
i NEED to learn...
i need to..
you hurt me once..
or WHOEVERS fault that was, *I* got hurt once already...
i wont.  let it happen again.. [<3] see that? WALLS. around my heart. and i wont just let them fall for you. no, if you want them to fall, youre gonna have to WORK for it. youre gonna have to work for ME. because #IAmWorthIt :D

I can find a MAN and not a boy..

i think...im ok. for now. ugh. guys. and yes, my fb status IS for him.
burn.
hahaha i hope he knows he blew his chance.
and hes never getting another one.
xD

Why is everything so confusing, maybe im just out of my mind..

in case anyone's wondering, yeah, he broke my heart.
he broke my heart and i just...let him.
he left and i just...let him.
he lead me on and lied to me from the VERY START...and i just let him.
is this my fault?
it sure as heck feels like it.
to basically everyone around me, i looked like i had my head on straight.
well, as hard as i tried to keep it on straight, i just couldnt. i got caught up in his lines, lost in his eyes...

"this doesnt mean i dont love everything about you, but sometimes thats not enough.."

that in and of itself is horrible. love. not.being.enough.
but whats worse?

"Im not enough and i wont be ever if not now..im not cut out.."

*I* wasnt enough for you.
i wasnt.

goshhhh i am SO upset with her. your LAST gf. because i feel like she tainted you. you were so nice, such a sweet boy...and then you went out with her. and i feel like you held me to her standard. 
well, IM NOT HER!!!
get that thru your head!!!
and the thing is, i TOLD you that much. i TOLD you i wouldnt be the girl she was. you said that was fine. you said you RESPECTED me.
youre a liar.
im hitting the keys so hard and typing these words so fast...i am SO mad at you. and her. there arent even words.
>:////

"im done hopin we could work it out..im done thinkin you could ever change, i know my heart will never be the same, but im tellin myself ill be ok..."

Saturday, November 12, 2011

worse than just knowing whats gonna happen...is waiting.
just wait and see.
anyone that knows me knows that isnt something i do well.
i can be patient physically...sorta...but emotionally? nope.
youre making me wait and my heart is getting more and more attached..
which honestly, could be one of my biggest mistakes of the year. because if in waiting, youre searching out other girls or, i dare say, SEEING other girls, and im sitting here letting my heart get attached..
grrr..
and i would trust your words...but, ya know, i havent heard from you in days.
and your words are fading in my heart.
sure, i have your texts locked on my phone...
but i miss hearing you SAY them.
i miss being with you.
i cautiously replay memories of that night..
i miss you.
that was hard for me to admit.
i never thought i had pride..
but seriously, there is no room in love for pride.
love destroys all your pride. and i think, thats a good thing.
but its been hard.
my pride tells me not to miss you bc if you dont miss me then i look clingy and desperate and whatnot.
pride.
NEVER a word i expected to describe me.
honestly, im learning a lot about myself this year.
yesterday, i fell apart..
tomorrow ill probably fall apart.
today i might even fall apart.
*sighh..
i want to be happy again.
i hadnt been truly happy in SO long..
and then you came along.
and i smiled more in those first few days than i think i have all year.


but just because someone makes you smile, dont EVER think that means they cant make you cry.

because they definitely can.

im sorry. for..whatever i did that..
im just sorry.
and i miss you.
it may be stupid.
i may be stupid.
i miss you and thats that.
<\3

lately...i cant even stand to see your face. 
it just hurts too much.


i miss being close.
i miss even being friends.
now...i dont even know WHAT we are...
all i know is i miss it. i miss us. i miss you.
i honestly do.
but i dont know how to tell you.
because you dont like me anymore.
and i dont miss THAT you.
i miss the you that liked me.


i miss him too. 
something inside of me just wants to text him and tell him i miss him. just leave it at that.
but i refuse.
i will deny myself this because, from the very beginning, HE called the shots. i liked it like that and i miss it and im SURE not gonna step up and start makin moves.
he knows where to find me if he really misses me.
and you know where to find me if you can first find it in you to stop hating me and want me back as a good friend
im not that hard to find. if you really want me, youll look. and if you look, youll find me.

Its.Gonna.Be.Ok. 
i dont even wanna say these things. i dont want them to be true. i sit here and talk to myself, alone, wishing that last winter had never happened.
i always want what i cant have. i feel stupid to keep going on and on about this.
but it was real.
and it was fake.
all at the same time.
note to self: never let a boy hold your heart, if he isnt even holding your hand.
this is...what i get.
i shouldve known.
why do i keep going on?
i thought i let go. maybe i was foolish..to think i ever COULD let go.
maybe letting go...isnt even an option.
or maybe im being dramatic and stupid...
but is that fair? i feel these things. should i just discredit them? write them off?
no.
i need to talk to someone. im letting this...ruin everything.
i hate this.
but...in some sick way...i like it.
i like feeling something again.
i think...i like...thinking about you.
thats sick.
seriously sick.
that after ALLLL of this...
no.
no way.
there is no way on this earth that i could still have feelings for you.
oh God please tell me this isnt true...please...
goshhhh!! NO! not again, not this all over again. im asking for heartbreak.
and i have someone! someone sweet and amazing...
someone nice to me. someone real...with me..
you never were. ANY of those things. you took advantage of the fact that your dazzling smile blinded me.
you worked those lines.
didnt you?
why do i feel like maybe im the only one to blame?
is that true? am i blaming you for something that is only MY fault? did *I* blow this up in my mind?
no. no i was there. i remember the words you said, the looks you gave me...whether you meant anything or not, we were flirting. and we both know it. so maybe you honest to goodness werent trying to toy with me. maybe you never meant for me to take things the way that i did.
but the fact is..i did.
how stupid is this? just let him go! my head screams.
but my heart...
NO.ONE. would look at this situation and see why i am sooo wrapped up in it.
no one.
but they werent there. they dont understand.
and as much as i want to talk to someone, *I* cant explain.
i dont even remember the story...
i can just still feel it.
and i cant explain that to someone because these emotions are ones youd have to feel to know.
i WISH i knew the truth. i WISH I knew WHAT happened last winter..but i dont.
all i know is pieces of how i felt then, and how i feel right.now.
and it doesnt make sense. it doesnt add up...
its just there.
he was the first.boy. to pay any real attention to me.
so i took it, i grabbed onto it..and i swore to NEVER let it go.
but then the time came...and i had to.
and i tried to convince myself that it would be OK for me to stay...for him.
and i thank God i never did.
but....ugh! nothing.happened.
thats just it. i almost wish something had...because at least id have legit reasons to feel like this. reasons...that people might understand.
but it didnt, and i dont.
all i know is how he made me feel.
and the confidence he gave me.
when i was with him...i felt SO gorgeous.
i dont even know why...he just...made me feel like that.
but then when i left...and he made NO effort to keep in touch even though he said he wanted to..
he left the pursuit up to me.
or maybe he'd let go and didnt care at all.
i dont know.
but whatever we'd HAD or ALMOST HAD...was over.
and i felt like i wasnt enough for him.
and if i wasnt enough for him..why should i ever be enough for anyone?
i never have been.
and things with him pounded that in me further.
i wasnt worth pursuing, i wasnt worth chasing after...
i just wasnt.
and so all these things i had felt with him..turned into icy lies in my heart. and in my head. and i told myself that everything he'd said was a line; that every nice word out of a guys mouth was a lie. or a line.
and i told myself that along with that, everything id FELT with him, was a lie.
so me feeling pretty? lie.
me being liked by someone? lie.
id told myself all along that he pursued me.
i guess then i felt worthy of being pursued. "a guy like him" pursuing me...
cept...he never did.
in retrospect, he MAY have started things. BIG "if". he may have. but i kept them going and i kept them going long after he'd lost interest and moved on.
im scared thats what im doing now, with this new guy.
but i dont even WANT to mix him into all this.
i hate it...but the truth of the matter is that he's already in it.
i havent cut ties from last winter. so my past still follows me..and haunts everything.i.do.
this is stupid. seriously. get up, move on...
i used to be strong.
those words are words i LIVED by. 'get up..move on..'
but i was strong WITH him...and after him i became weak.
because 'strong' was a lie.
'pretty' was a lie.
'worthy' was a lie.
not lies HE told me. no. these were lies i told myself.
things that were true...but after him i told myself everything id ever known..was a lie.
i dont even know why.
i just wanted to run. after that. i wanted to start over. i wanted to be everything i wasnt..maybe because it felt like everything i WAS was what wasnt enough for him.
i dont know.
all i know is i wanted out. of this town, of this state...
just out.
away.
i needed to get away.
i ran away as best i could...
no. thats a lie.
because we're still friends..on facebook.
...
First snowfall 
winter scares me. honestly. i think i seriously have like, seasonal depression..not to mention the whole "last winter" thing...
im scared.
i want to enjoy winter. i want to snuggle up next to the fire, with my cozy pjs and oversized sweaters, with a mug of steaming cocoa and my family surrounding me; friends to go sledding and build snowmen with, a sweet boyfriend to brush snowflakes out of my hair and make snow angels, a tree to decorate while dancing like idiots to old Christmas carols on the radio, cookies and pies and "comfort food"...
all the beautiful things about this season.
oh! and Christmas present shopping...i love it. i love the secrecy and surprises. 
seriously, this season is so..magical 
until....its been ruined for you.
now, when i think of winter, i remember long, cold, dark nights; all alone, wishing he would just go through with even half of the things he acted like he meant, emptiness, scars, tears, knowing that whatever i was wasnt enough for him and never would be...

100 days.

i hate apologies. i mean, i hate having to say them.
kind of like how i hate goodbyes.
but id much rather apologize to you than say goodbye because i was too stubborn to apologize.
so i did it.
i sent the text that i sat on all day.
now i just pray and wait for your response.
♥ its raining. my playlist for the morning is swapping between Impossible by Shontelle and Tightrope by Ron Pope.
its just a sad song kind of day.
fall is almost over. its kind of sad. but, im the weirdest way, im looking forward to winter.
but i didnt come on here to write about the weather; but to tell you what it means for me.
season changes bring out different emotions in me.
lately, ive been kind of scared for winter.
because of LAST winter.
once trust is broken, it CAN be fixed.
but it will never be the same.
i know God can restore anything.
but i still have scars and thats just fact.
but that doesnt mean im never gonna love again.
so maybe i got played once. maybe i got lead on. maybe i lead my own heart on. maybe this isnt even his fault. ok, it is. but i think its my fault too. i need to be more responsible and careful with my heart.
but im ready to let all that go. it doesnt matter whose fault it was. it doesnt matter what happened, and it certainly doesnt matter what didnt.
actually....it all matters. it mattered then, and it still does matter.
but i can forgive him, forgive myself, forgive the situation, say 'yeah it does matter, but im ready to let go', and then? do just  that.
move.on.
let.go.
im ready.
i slept for like, a reallyyy long time last night. and all throughout that time, i dreamt..of someone.
i dreamt of you. 
not the same guy that hurt me. no, i dreamt of the guy i cant LET myself love and trust BECAUSE of that other guy.
i saw all that we could have, all that we could be....and i could FEEL the emotions.
i like him.
a lot.
before i went to bed last night, i read back over our texts from this weekend.
i was so cold.
i was short with him.
nothing like it used to be.
i USED to let him sweep me off my feet. 
and this weekend, it was like my feet were buried 4 feet under the ground.
:/ i feel so awful.
i was scared of getting hurt so like i ALWAYS do, i protected myself.
'if he doesnt get close i cant get hurt.'
but i also cant get love. i miss how things used to be and yet, im the one wrecking them.
all because of some guy i knew last winter.
no. no more.
i woke up this morning and i knew.
its time.
im letting him go.
i also realized...as terrifying as this is to admit....i really like this kid.
i dont wanna lose him..especially over some old ghost from my past.
i want him to pursue me like he did before. 
i want to not resist. 
i wanna let everything from our pasts go and let THIS relationship happen NOW.

Too Far Too Broken

i cant write this song.
i just cant do it.
it hurts too much.
its just too real.
i dont wanna dig up all those old emotions.
i didnt want to feel that way the first time and i sure as HECK dont ever want to feel it again.
but to write the song...i have to go back there.
to deal with this, i have to go back there.
this is how i deal. i know i need to do this.
but im scared.
im scared to dig up those old feelings. thoughts. memories. tears. emptiness. hurts. disappointments. lies. lines.
you.
im scared to remember you.

Umbrella in the sunshine

im just carrying my umbrella, waiting for rain that may or may not ever come.
but, if it does come, im prepared.
i may miss out on things in life because i cant grab on to them, considering that one hand is always being used to carry the umbrella; BUT, if it rains, ill be the prepared one.
and if it doesnt, well, then maybe ill regret carrying the umbrella and missing out on other things because of that.
but at least i knew that, IF it DID rain, i wouldnt get soaked. i would stay nice and dry and warm.
looks like either way ill regret. if it does rain, and i dont carry an umbrella, if im not prepared for storms, ill regret that. but if i carry and umbrella and anticipate the rain clouds, and all i get are sunny skies and missed opportunities, well, ill regret that too.
whats the right answer??
"Worry about nothing, but in everything pray and give thanks.."
oh.
worrying is what causes me to carry an umbrella. im worried its gonna downpour any second, and ill be caught in the middle of it UNLESS i protect myself.
this is all a metaphor, of course.
but it paints such an accurate portrait of me.
the Bible says not to worry.
and yet,
here i stand with my umbrella.
life has taught me,
i have to prepare and protect myself.

"And though You're invisible, ill trust the unseen.."

How often do i do that? Lately, i cant even trust the seen...

I hate everything about you

i wish that were true.
"Its just that my girl's been so hurt and im not tryin to be the next one going through it.."

"This time i wont say no, cuz sayin no is a way to protect me.."

i dont wanna just be another regret. another scar. another girl from his past. another ex-girlfriend.
another almost lover.
thats what i dont want him to be.
another almost lover.
i went through the whole "almost lover" thing once.
ya know, i spent all morning going back through all my stuff from last winter....
and i still cant piece together exactly what happened. i only remember snapshots.
i can tell i was torn, bc half the time i loved you and half the time i wanted you gone. half the time i was mad at you and half the time i couldnt bring myself to hate you at all.
but as for what actually happened?
i dont know.
i cant make sense of this.
i look at your picture and i want to cry just to try and get this out. but i cant. i just feel so much but the tears refuse to come.
i want to just freaking forget you already.
im so tired of this. it makes me sick to see the feelings i still have from you affecting the way i feel about him.
you broke me and you literally KNOCKED THE NAIVE OUT OF ME.
you were the FIRST GUY to introduce me to the art of lines.
and now i cant trust him because of WHAT YOU DID. you didnt mean what you said, hence, lines. and now i cant trust that he means what he says because im only used to sweet words being lines used to get something from me.
UGHHHHHH!!!
D.
wow. i havent typed your name in so long. (shortened to D for identity cover)
D.
it feels weird. it like, still affects me.. :/
D.
i want to just keep typing it because, when i do, i actually feel something. i need to feel something if im ever gonna get over this.
and i WANT to get over this! because i have someone new, someone waiting on me to let you go. to let the past go. to let mistakes go. to let my scars go.
....hes waiting on me.
people say he must like me. otherwise, why would he take things slow with me; why would he be so patient with me? if he were just out to get something, he would pick a different girl. one that would give it to him. i know he knows i wont because ive told him. ive told him straight up that if thats what hes looking for, he better find a different girl.
he said thats not whats hes after.
and even more than ANY words hes said, i look at the way he acts.
he texts me every.day.
he takes things slow with me.
and hes said he doesnt want a different girl EVEN THOUGH he knows i wont go very far physically with him.
he knows alllll of this and yet...
he does all of that.
he stays.
but im distant and cold because of you.
im broken because of you and that flows over into how i feel about and treat him... :///
im DONE letting you hurt me.
im done. i dont know HOW to let go yet, but what i do know is i WILL let go.
i will.
im done.
goodbye D.

love is a game.
the sooner you know that...
the sooner youll be like me.
cynical. hopeless. unbelieving.
i cry when i read your texts to me. because they are so.dang.sweet. or anyways, they used to be. but the tears i cried..
gosh i swear im love bipolar. ughh..because i would cry happy tears...
but more often than not, your sweet words cut into my heart.
did you catch that?
your sweet words HURT me.
O.o
how honest can i be right now? lately ive started to feel like i have to keep my truest feelings inside. and maybe thats true. but right now i seriously need to get this out. please...bear with me. and dont judge me..
ok fine. the truth is...im mad. im still mad about what happened last winter. im mad over what didnt happen. but mostly...im mad that i let myself believe something about someone..that never came to be.
mostly, im hurt.
mostly, i hurt myself.
for a long time, i was mad at myself solely because i had to be mad at someone and i couldnt bring myself to be mad at him.
then i was mad at him because i felt like he had...destroyed me.
and now i realize that i may never know whose fault it was.
all i know is that it hurt. i hurt.
and i still do.
last winter...
and now, we are on the brink of a whole new season. a brand new winter. i can feel it in the air. the sky hints of snow on its way. i know whats coming.
winter.
this winter.

i feel like its starting all over again.

thats it. thats exactly it.
i feel like everything that went down last winter; all the hurt and scars and broken emptiness, i feel like thats whats gonna happen this year.
im blaming you for his mistakes.
and whats worse?
im also blaming you for mine.
i havent let last year go. i havent forgiven and i certainly havent forgotten.
i want to!
...but i just dont know how.
i dont know how to let go of lines and sweet eyes.
i dont know how to forget that dazzling smile.
i can still hear your voice echo in my thoughts when i read the words you once said to me.
its all still here. with me. in my heart.
its burning my heart.
anyone that really KNOWS me..would wonder what the HECK im talking about. my family would look at this and be L.O.S.T.
...i dont know how to explain.
idk if you could call it a relationship...
i guess it was a relationship based on emotions more than a relationship where anything actually...happened.
he lead me on.
and i let him.
see, he said the most beautiful things...no...that was you.
but he said cute things. he made me feel special.
he was the first guy to make me feel pretty.
you were the first guy to TELL me im pretty.
see the difference? so do i. but i didnt till i wrote it out.
he said things that i blew up in my head and made them into something they might not have been.
you said things that were explicitly sweet and left no room in my mind for doubt about what you meant.
see the difference?
his were lines at best and fictional romance i made into something it wasnt in my head.
yours are lines at worst and...beautiful truths at best.
see the difference..?
yeahh..
and yet, i have the nerve to sit and compare you to him??
sometimes i make myself sick. almost literally.
no one understands my hesitation except the one person that knows the story about last winter...
but NO ONE understands it like i do.
no one could.
so people look at this and they...they dont understand.
i want to believe you. i want to fall for you.
but i tried all that already.
and it didnt work out real well if even a YEAR LATER...im still trying to work things through.
and i know i know i know i know I KNOW that its NOT.THE.SAME.
*sighhhhhh..
why cant i give US a chance of our own? why do i compare what we ARE, to everything him and i WEREN'T and NEVER.WOULD.BE.?
why?!?
i want to. i want to fall.
but let me be very clear
i want to fall for YOU.
NOT for your LINES..
just sayin...

....
i dont know what to say. there arent really words.
well, there is. 
but the truth is, no one would want to hear them.
and, save for one person, no one WILL hear them.
ughh...i want control. because im used to being taken advantage of and blindsided when i DONT have control.
but...im the girl. so i want HIM to control.
i mean, i want him to be...well...in control, yeah.
cept, in the past, that hasnt worked out too well for me.
the guy ends up with my heart in his hands, and, instead of being careful with it, he twists it, squeezes the life out of it...
and throws the pieces in my direction as he walks away.


maybe that looks a little dramatic. maybe it IS dramatic.
but i swear to you...in that moment...it totally felt like that.
maybe i cant even be mad at this guy. i really dont know. a lot of...breaking happened with him. idk if thats his fault or mine and im not sure ill ever know.
what i do know, is that something happened last winter. 
something i havent fully recovered from.
and now theres a new guy.
and hes paying for my past :(
i hate that. im trying to not let my past interfere AGAIN.
and somedays...are better than others. 
i need to deal with my past...i need to...CONFRONT it...
im scared. im legit scared to confront it. i dont wana go there again.
it hurt too much the first time.
but...its gotta be done. i dont want to keep hurting other guys for the hurt i have from him. i dont want to hold that hurt in my heart anymore. i want to let go. forgive him. forgive me. move on. learn to love again.
God, please help me..
grrr...maybe this was a bad idea. im not sure. but then, i really didnt have much of a choice :/
i want to like you...ok, i DO like you...
are you happy? i do. i said it. i do like you.
i usually dont let myself admit that until the other person says they like me first.
well we've both said it. sighh..when im with you, im comfortable. but when im away...
i see your fb wall...i see all those girls...i start to think about her...and why you could possibly be interested in ME..
my mind plays tricks on me. it conjures up these images and these things that arent even happening. but i get myself all worked up and i get upset...
i am all over the place today..
seriously.
why did i do this? why did i let myself fall SO hard?
and what worse, is im realizing im taking out anger and hurt that someone else caused me LAST.YEAR...and im taking that out on you.
youre silently suffering for what happened and what didnt happen with him...
i hate to even be THINKING about him again. i hate to be reminscing. but the other day i let myself read back through the things id written about him. all those feelings came flooding back and felt so real again.
i think ive been a little numb ever since.
but then yesterday i realized that what happened and didnt happen between me and him...still hurt me. and i had never had a chance to settle that with him.
so im taking out those hurts on you. i dont mean to...but he made me more guarded and more cautious..he really knocked that last bit of naive and innocence out of me and stole my self confidence.
and now you suffer for that. bc im more close guarded with you, i expect you to hurt me, i expect you to toy with me..
i expect that youre not REALLY interested in me.
i expect that ill get hurt.
and im sorry. because you could be SO much better than all of this.
but you also might not be.
i WANT to be willing to take that chance, but, on the same hand, i dont want to widn up broken hearted and feeling used and played with. i dont want to wind up giving things to you that were special to me, only to find out i was "just another girl" to you. i dont WANT to be...
hurt.
im scared. i wanna run. i really do. this is all so foreign, so new. i dont want to try. especially when i feel like im already competing with all those girls...
but the thing is, you picked me. over all them, you.chose.me.
no matter what my mind says, its clear you did. not to say that you arent stringing me along WITH all these other girls, but, from the looks of it, you dont have much of a relationship with these other girls.
but gosh, what do i know? i remember LAST winter i sat and analyzed someone's fb and made assumptions :P
well, im not gonna do that again.
our relationship with be NOTHING like mine and his. if you could even call that a realtionship. i dont know. but whatever it was, you and i will be nothing like that.
ill make sure of it.
